What's the Jam?

A street festival built by the neighborhood

Last summer, downtown Roswell businesses came together to close off Oak Street for a series of family-friendly block parties. It's grown into one of the best nights of the season — and it keeps getting bigger.

🎸

Live Bands

Two live acts every Jam — afternoon and evening sets keep the energy going all night long.

🎨

Kids' Zone

Crafts, face painting and a bounce house. A whole corner of the street built just for the little ones.

🍴

Local Eats

Delicious food from Roswell's favorite local restaurants and food vendors. Come hungry.

🛍️

Pop-Up Shops

Unique finds from local makers and small businesses you won't see anywhere else.

🥤

Refreshing Drinks

Water, soda, craft beverages and 21+ options from area vendors to keep the good times going.

🌇

Block-Party Vibes

String lights, open streets and the whole community out together. This is what summer feels like.

🎟️

Free to Attend

No tickets, no cover, no catch. Just show up — bring the family, the neighbors and the dog.

📅

Three Friday Nights

May 22, June 26 & July 24, all 5–9 PM. Make it a summer tradition — come to one or come to all three.

What a vendor setup looks like

Whether you're a maker, a food vendor or a pop-up shop, setup is simple — a table, your products and you. Here's a peek at vendors getting ready and in action.

Makers & pop-up shopsA table, a tablecloth and your best products — that's all it takes to get started.

Food & drink vendorsPrep stations, a menu board and a serving table. We help with placement and power.

Indoor & covered optionsSome Jams use covered spaces — so weather's never a worry for you or your goods.

Presented By

Presented by our local partners

Many of our sponsors are the very same local businesses you'll meet on the street — they put their name behind the Jam to keep it free and growing for the community.

Why Sponsor

Put your brand in front of the whole town

Three Friday nights. A closed-off Oak Street packed with local families. Sponsoring the Jam isn't a donation — it's the best local marketing in Roswell, and it shows the community you helped build the night.

Getting Here

Parking & arrival

Oak Street is closed to cars for the Jam, so you'll park nearby and walk in. Here's exactly where to go — including the easiest option if you've got a stroller in tow.

👶 Best bet for families

Roswell City Hall lot — 38 Hill Street

Over 400 free spaces and the most stroller-friendly approach: flat, well-lit sidewalks the whole way, about a 5–7 minute (¼-mile) walk to Oak Street. If you're bringing little ones and a stroller, start here. Arrive before 6 PM and you'll have your pick of spots.

🆓

More Free Lots

Green St. behind Fire Station #1 (1056 Green St) — 70 free spaces, 24/7. Hagan Center (Canton & Norcross) — 67 spaces, free after 5 PM. Both a short walk in.

🅿️

Green Street Deck

The newest covered option at GA-9 & Green Street — currently free during downtown construction. Great if it's hot or raining and you want shade for the walk.

🪙

Street Parking (Paid)

Spots on Canton St & Elizabeth Way are metered after 6 PM (~$2/hr, pay by kiosk or the ParkMobile app). Convenient but limited — the free lots are a better bet for a 4-hour evening.

🚶

Walking In

Enter on foot from Canton Street or Atlanta Street — look for the festival banners and string lights. The whole site is flat and easy with a stroller or wheelchair.

♿

Accessibility

ADA spaces are available in the City Hall lot and the Green Street deck. The closed street itself is flat, paved and fully stroller / wheelchair friendly.

🐾

Good to Know

Leashed, friendly dogs are welcome. Bring both cash and cards — most vendors take both. Strollers and wagons are easy to roll the whole length of the street.

Tip: rideshare drop-off is easy too — have your driver aim for the Canton & Norcross corner, then it's a flat one-block walk to the entrance.
