The NorthShore Merchants Collective (NSMC) is bringing a new celebration to the heart of Chattanooga’s NorthShore district.

Enter: The Frazier Festival, taking place on Saturday, May 3 from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. along Frazier Avenue (from North Market Street to Forest Avenue).

Secretary of NSMC Geno Wallace said the festival is about showcasing the unique energy of NorthShore.

“It’s a chance for locals and visitors alike to experience our neighborhood’s creativity, charm, and commitment to supporting our vibrant community,” said Wallace.

The free, family-friendly event will feature 20+ local vendors, sidewalk activations (think: face painting, games, and pop-up art stations), and more from NorthShore shops + eateries.

Here are a few of the festivities we’re excited to experience:

Note: The area of the festival will be closed to traffic during the event to create a safe + walkable experience, so plan for alternative traffic routes.
