Calamity! Catastrophe! Oh, Citizens of Watch City, our dear Watch City Steampunk Festival has been plundered by Time Pirates!!! Yes, the notorious Time Pirates have purloined three hours of festival time, leaving us with an event that starts at Noon and runs until 4:00pm on May 9th.
Our FREE beloved Festival will still feature costumed performers, musicians, kids' activities, and a large collection of unique vendors peddling all things Steampunk. Centered on the beautiful Waltham Common, attendees can listen to musical entertainment at the Gazebo and stroll a network of footpaths through our open-air vendors’ market. Additionally you can experience exhibitions, kids’ activities, dine at various food trucks, and view multiple performance spaces.
Consult the event schedule on our website for a complete list of vendors, performances and venues. Including any extra hours of entertainment that may be scheduled at various Waltham locations in the future (or past).
Note that there will be NO rain date for this event. As Time Pirates do not control the weather. Please prepare for the weather accordingly!
