44th Annual Fells Point Fun Festival is this weekend!

The Fells Point Festival is an annual tradition in Charm City. Held each year on the first weekend in October (October 2 & 3), the streets of Fells Point are closed to vehicular traffic as thousands of locals and tourists roam the streets enjoying live music, carnival games, local arts and crafts and of course, great food! The Admiral Fell Inn sits right in the middle of the action!

This is the 44th annual outdoor street festival held in Baltimore’s original deep water seaport, Fell’s Point. The festival was originally started as a way to raise funds and draw attention to Fell’s Point when the area was slated for demolition due to highway construction. The Fell’s Point Fun Festival continues that tradition, showcasing historic Fell’s Point, it’s businesses, its charming 18th and 19th century residences, and Baltimore City life.
