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.

🥤
