What a Festival!

A massive shoutout to everyone who made Creative Streets 2025 such a brilliant celebration of local talent and community spirit! From the amazing performers and artists, to the schools, preschools, community groups, local businesses, and every single person who showed up — you brought the streets to life!

We loved every minute of it, and we’re already gearing up for an even bigger Creative Streets Festival in 2026. See you there!

Everyone who contributed to making the Creative Streets Festival 2025 a success
