Happy Yankee Homecoming week and hello from the Greater Newburyport Chamber of Commerce and Industry! Newburyport is alive with so much activity, music, friends, family, shopping, dining and summer fun!
The Chamber and our members are certainly in the swing of things. Today kicks off our annual tradition of “Old Fashioned Sidewalk Sales” starting today and continuing through Saturday, July 31st! Enjoy old fashioned, outdoor shopping throughout downtown Newburyport, Port Plaza and the Tannery from 10 AM to 7 PM. In combination with Yankee Homecoming, Old Fashioned Sidewalk Sales entice locals and visitors alike, creating an enthusiasm for downtown activities that lasts well after the sales end!
