What to Know Before You Go: Square to Square Street Festival 🎉
We can’t wait to see you on Main Street this Saturday! Before you grab your crew and head downtown, here are a few things to know before you go:
🎟️ Admission
This is a free event and no tickets are required. Most activities are free, including rides and inflatables in Town Square, face painting, balloon animals, and more. A few vendors will be selling items including tie-dye T-shirts, Farmers Market goods, food truck favorites, and snacks.
🍷 Social District Drinks
Enjoy a beverage from one of our local bars while you explore the festival—just be sure to ask for it “to go.” Please note: outside alcohol is not permitted.
🛍️ Support Local Businesses
Be sure to stop into our downtown businesses while you’re here! Shop local retail stores, grab a coffee, or sit down for lunch. Many businesses will be offering special hours just for the festival.
🚧 Road Closures
Main Street (from O’Neil to Lombard) will close at 8:30 a.m. and reopen at 3 p.m.
🐾 Pets
Friendly, leashed pets are welcome. Please be mindful of large crowds and noise levels.
🚗 Parking
Parking is available in numerous lots throughout Downtown and along surrounding streets. Please do not block driveways, fire hydrants, or intersections. A downtown parking map is available here: https://viewer.mapme.com/downtownclayton. Note: the Town Square and Horne Square lots will be closed for the event.
🎒 What to Bring
