Homewood Porch Fest

08/05/2023

Unfortunately, the weather is not cooperating with us today. For the safety of the musicians and their instruments we are canceling today's festival. We here at Homewood Porch Fest are not meteorologists so we must rely on the reports we get. If you're still looking for some live music tonight please consider patronizing some local businesses with music venues like Copper Still Martini Lounge & Speakeasy, Blue Island Beer Company, The Quarry Ballroom, Clancy's Pizza Pub, and so many more.

See you next year!
