The Laurel Board of Trade is celebrating its 40th annual Main Street Festival this year, on Saturday, May 7th from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.


After a two-year hiatus for COVID-19, vendors, musicians, arts and crafters, and hopefully visitors will be back in a very big way for this rain or shine event.


  • 57 groups are participating in the Parade which starts at 9 a.m.
  • 40 arts and craft vendors, 20 food vendors, and 40 Main Street merchants and other general sales vendors will line Main Street. (Don’t forget to pick up a Mother’s Day gift for mom.)
  • Bands will perform at two locations:

                       -near the former Revere Bank lot at 316 Main Street


                       -at the Quill lot—about 376 Main Street


  • Missing children can be reunited with parents at the LBOT Information Booth at 384B Main Street

Only severe thunderstorms or lightning would force a cancellation.
