Portland’s Rose Festival Returns

As the sun starts to make more of an appearance and temperatures rise, May in Portland feels like a turning point from grey gloom to bright hope. With a new spring in our step, there are plenty of activities to keep Portlandians busy this month, including our featured activity- The Portland Rose Festival.

Being founded in 1907, The Portland Rose Festival has been a long standing tradition and perfect gateway into Summer. Being canceled the past two Summers, the Reunion Festival will kick off on May 27th at Tom McCall Waterfront park. Enjoy live music, carnival rides, food, drinks, and a huge fireworks display. And this is just the opening night! Over the course of three weekends, the festival will continue with parades and so much more.  For more info, a calendar of events and ticket information, visit here.

I don’t know about all of you, but I can’t wait to start exploring our beautiful city again with my family and friends.
