In the Streets!
What it is
A community event located in BCQ's hometown of Frederick, MD where local artists, vendors, merchants, and townspeople come together to celebrate the
rich cultural and historical backdrop of Downtown Frederick.
History
For over 25 years the In The Street festival has been held in downtown Frederick. The festival began in 1983 after major renovations closed Market
Street for several months. When the dust settled Mayor Ron Young decided to hold a festival for the entire community to celebrate the reopening
of this prominent downtown area. The Festival was held in the street so the naming of the event was simple. That first In The Street festival boasted
10,000 in attendance and today In The Street attracts crowds of over 50,000!
After 25 years, In The Street still celebrates the Historic District and highlights the best of what Frederick has to offer. The all day festival
from Carroll Creek to 6th on Market Street brings food, fun and entertainment for the whole family.
