Oswego Harborfest

July 24 - 27, 2025

Breitbeck Park

Breitbeck Park comes alive during Harborfest. The park hosts a diverse variety of live music performances on its main stage. Food, arts and crafts, farmer’s market and business vendors line the park, making for great eating and excellent shopping. Support our vendors to help keep Harborfest free for you to attend!

Children take center stage on Friday, as the annual Children’s Parade ends at the park and kicks off a day of special performances and activities. The Midway Carnival and the Cahill Pier music stage are a short walk away. The park’s scenic location along the Oswego Marina, Harbor, and Great Lakes provides a beautiful backdrop for the festivities and a great place to watch the region’s biggest and best fireworks show. Breitbeck Park is the heart of Harborfest.

Please note:

  • Smoking and vaping are banned in all City of Oswego public places.
  • For HEALTH & SAFETY reasons, pets are not allowed in the park during the festival.
