Save the (new) date for pARTy in the Park 🎨🌳

pARTy in the Park has been rescheduled for Friday, October 2, 2026, and we're excited to celebrate with a new concert format at John C. Fremont Park featuring Dylan Bloom!

While the event has evolved from its original plans, our goal remains the same: bringing our community together to celebrate the arts and everything that makes the Fremont Creative District so special.

But… the fun doesn't stop there!

This special evening will serve as the official kickoff to Gallery Walk Weekend, with the MainStreet Fremont Gallery Walk taking place throughout Downtown Fremont on Saturday, October 3. Spend the weekend exploring local artists, creative businesses, unique exhibits, and be sure to cast your vote for your favorite sculpture in the Fremont Sculpture Walk!

We're grateful for your patience and support as improvements at John C. Fremont Park were completed, and we can't wait to celebrate with you this fall. Stay tuned for additional event details, and be sure to follow the Fremont Creative District so you don't miss any updates.
