My whole family enjoyed the variety of events at this festival. In addition to the great entertainment there were a lot of interesting and unique vendor displays. Food and drink choices were excellent and affordable. The carnival rides and amusement area were a big hit with my children and provided some nostalgia for us older folks, too! Enjoyed the weekend!

As always, an outstanding roster of entertainment this year! With the enormous jump in the cost of original artist fees, it's great that we can still relive the music of the 70's-80's with the best nationally touring tribute acts. The McCartney Years were superb as was Tusk, The Machine and of course The Blushing Brides never disappoint!

A wonderful event for the New England area showcasing the talents of area artists and musicians as well as nationally touring acts. Combine this with great food and drink, an outstanding local marketplace for artist, artisans, businesses and other nonprofits with an array of events for children and you have an inclusive family event!

They had the best cover bands and such a great assortment of vendors and food items available.
Plenty of room for you to get up and dance.
The activities available range from the kids at the carnival to the older folks singing to the bands in the arena.
Best event around for a nice summer night!!

The East Providence Heritage days is a great opportunity to showcase local talent not only musically but artistically as well. It’s a way for family to enjoy time together and an opportunity to see people that you haven’t seen in a while. Every year I look forward to attending the weekend festivities at the East Providence Heritage Festival.

It's always a great weekend with good music and friends you haven't seen in a while. Where can you go to get a full night of music for $5! A good variety of food vendors and ice cold beer!
A location that is 2 minutes off the interstate.
