The 41st Annual Festival on the Green has begun! Don't miss out on this summer tradition of free music and entertainment on the Middlebury town Green!

"Brown Bag Specials," performances designed for a family audience, are presented at 12:00-1:00 Monday through Friday. Festival-goers bring a bag lunch or picnic from home, or visit one of the nearby restaurants for take-out. These shows feature storytelling, dance, music, and puppetry.

Each night features two evening performances, 7:00 and 8:30pm with two different musical acts! The week's program features something for nearly every musical taste drawn from Vermont and international touring artists. A menu of music including folk, jazz, world, bluegrass and much, much more!

Saturday Evening will feature a Street Dance from 7:00-9:00. Since 1984, the capstone event has been the Street Dance, featuring big-band selections by the always-popular Vermont Jazz Ensemble. The Vermont Jazz Ensemble is a 17 member instrumental music group that performs music, most of which is in the jazz or big band style. This is a wonderful event for the whole family. Come early and learn some dance steps from Jim Condon! Main street will be closed from Merchants Row to the post office for the dance.

All events take place rain or shine under the big tent at village town green bordered by Rt 125 Main Street/Rt 7 and Merchants Row. Visit their website to find out details on the daily performances.
