OH MY AHHH!! We are so incredibly grateful for everyone who came out to pavefest 2026 and helped make it the incredible day it was! From course correcting a last minute location change to sticking it out throughout the rain, Pavefest couldn’t have happened without everyone in attendance.
We also want to give a HUGE thank you to everyone that performed and to the vendors who came and set up! You all really gave it that real festival feel. Lastly, We are happy to announce that we raised over $730 for the american cancer society! Woohoo!
Once again on behalf of everyone in oak and unmarked pavement thank you! Keep an eye out for Pavefest 2027 ;)
