NJ Street Fairs are back! See the latest 2025 schedule

Updated 4/20/25

It's something so many of us around the Garden State have been waiting for—the return of New Jersey's street fairs. Yes, that time is now.

One thing to note, however, is that not every year is the same as the last. And we're seeing that happen with the 2025 lineup. But first, the mainstays.

The good news here is that a fairly large majority of the street fairs we enjoyed in the past are coming back for another season. However, the dates of some of these vary quite considerably from the 2024 season.

I'm talking weeks off. The first Red Bank street fair of the season, for example, usually occurs at the very beginning of April. However, don't expect to see it return until the end of April in 2025.

It's not a bad thing, but it does point to how much some of these dates have shifted. In addition to that, some street fairs from last year have not announced a return for this year (at least for now). There are also a few new additions to the list, which is always welcome.

With that said, here's a look at the current lineup for 2025 throughout the Garden State (Plus a look at which ones the Big Yellow Van will be stopping at, complete with prizes and giveaways).
