Description

The Melrose Chamber of Commerce and the City of Melrose are thrilled to announce the 11th Annual Summer Stroll on Friday, July 26th! Come to downtown Melrose from 6:00pm – 9:00pm and take some time to discover what makes our community so special!

With generous support from our Summer Stroll Presenting Sponsor, The Residence at Melrose Station, and a grant from the Melrose Messina Fund for the Arts, the Summer Stroll is a fun evening of music, dining and shopping locally. Patronize your favorite restaurants and retailers, while visiting ones that are new to you. 

During the event, restaurants will sell and serve food and beverages on the sidewalk, while local merchants will offer tastings, specials, demos and sales at their businesses. Thanks to the support of several local businesses, there will be multiple, live musical performances by area musicians. The Summer Stroll entertainment is made possible by our business sponsors: 128 Plumbing, Cooling, Heating & Electric, Bell & Izzi, LLC, Melrose Glass, Pegasus Design-to-Build, Rockland Trust, and Sullivan & Clark, Attorneys at Law. Special shoutout to our Music Director, Tim Kochanskis, for coordinating the talent for the event!  

In order to create a spacious pedestrian walkway complete with outdoor dining, store sales, sampling, live performances and more, Main Street will be closed to vehicles, between Upham Street to Grove Street; and Essex Street will be closed to vehicles between Upham Street and Cerretani Way.
