On Saturday, September 26, 2026, porches across Collingswood will become stages as musicians, artists, neighbors, and local businesses come together for one of the town’s most anticipated community events: Collingswood PorchFest.
The JFKLiving Team is proud to sponsor Collingswood PorchFest for the second consecutive year—and this time, we’re also helping the day get off to an earlier, louder, and considerably more theatrical start.

What Is Collingswood PorchFest?
Collingswood PorchFest is a volunteer-organized grassroots music and arts festival created to build community connections through the arts.
Between 12 p.m. and 7 p.m., performers will take over porches throughout Collingswood, turning front yards and neighborhood streets into a walkable, town-wide music festival. More than 100 acts are expected to participate, giving you the chance to plan a route around longtime favorites, discover new local performers, or simply wander until something sounds too good to walk past.
Once the final porch performances wrap up, the celebration will continue with an official after-party featuring LJ and the Muscle, The Classic Brown, and Candy Volcano.

JFKLiving Is Helping PorchFest Start the Day with a Bang
This year’s Collingswood PorchFest festivities will begin at 11:30 a.m. with an expanded kickoff celebration on Belmont Avenue, hosted by the Link family and headlined by the costumed comic-book rock powerhouse The StereoTytans.
The JFKLiving Team is sponsoring the opening celebration and providing light breakfast treats for attendees. Revolution Coffee will also be serving cold brew, available with a donation or the purchase—or proof of purchase—of official PorchFest merchandise.
Come for the breakfast and cold brew. Stay for the costumed superrock. Then spend the rest of the day exploring Collingswood one porch at a time.
Supporting the opening celebration is especially meaningful to the JFKLiving Team. Our work may be real estate, but what makes Collingswood such a special place to live has always been bigger than the houses. It’s the neighbors, local businesses, creative community, and homegrown events that turn a town into somewhere people feel genuinely connected.
That’s exactly what Collingswood PorchFest celebrates.
A Community Event That Gives Back
Collingswood PorchFest is run by volunteers, allowing organizers to keep the event’s operating budget low and direct more support toward organizations serving the local community.
Proceeds from the 2026 event will benefit:
- The Collingswood School District Panther Pantry
- The Collingswood School District Theatre Program
- Community Rocks
Community Rocks is a local nonprofit that uses music and the arts to help strengthen the community—making it a natural partner for a festival built around creativity and connection.
By sponsoring Collingswood PorchFest for a second year, JFKLiving is joining a full lineup of locally owned and community-minded businesses helping make the festival possible while supporting these important local programs.
Where to Buy Collingswood PorchFest Merchandise
Official 2026 Collingswood PorchFest merchandise will be available on two dates:
- Saturday, September 19: Visit the Revolution Coffee tent at the Collingswood Farmers Market.
- Saturday, September 26: Merchandise will be available at Revolution Coffee on PorchFest Day, with specific sale times to be announced.
Purchasing PorchFest merchandise is another way to support the event and the local organizations benefiting from it.
Why JFKLiving Supports Collingswood PorchFest
As a local real estate team, JFKLiving spends plenty of time talking about what makes Collingswood homes so desirable: beautiful architecture, walkable streets, independent restaurants and shops, convenient access to Philadelphia, and neighborhoods filled with personality.
PorchFest brings all of those elements together in one event. It invites people out of their homes and onto their porches. It introduces neighbors who might otherwise only exchange a quick wave. It creates opportunities for local performers, supports community programs, and gives residents and visitors another reason to experience Collingswood on foot.
For the JFKLiving Team, sponsoring Collingswood PorchFest for the second year is an opportunity to support the kind of community connection that makes Collingswood more than a sought-after place to buy a home. It’s what makes people want to stay, participate, and put down roots here.
