The Cooper-Young Community Association is excited to announce that it will be bringing back the Cooper-Young Porchfest on Saturday, April 20, 2024 from noon to 6 p.m. Staged on the eclectic porches of our historic neighborhood, this all-volunteer event will feature an eclectic mix of bands playing on residents’ front porches, and is intended to be a grassroots celebration of spring, music, and Cooper-Young. Coupled with this event, the CYCA will also bring back their annual community yard sale that morning, setting the stage for a day of fun and community connection. The event is sponsored by Memphis Made Brewing and Steve Womack – State Farm Insurance Agent.
The Porchfest 2024 map & schedule is now live! You can save the map to photos on your phone to be able to easily access, or come by our booth at the gazebo for a printed map (while they last) and to buy a Cooper-Young shirt and other merch. This schedule/map is subject to change but is pretty dang accurate as of the week of the fest.
If you’re coming to Porchfest — great! We’re happy you’ll be visiting Cooper-Young! All of the musicians are volunteering so bring cash to tip them or do so through Venmo/CashApp through the handles listed on the map. While you’re in Cooper-Young, please visit our many bars and restaurants to dine in or take out food, and grab some beers from Memphis Made! Please tag your Porchfest posts with #cyporchfest – we wanna see what everyone’s up to that day!
To kick everything off, we’re bringing back our Community Yard Sale! The yard sales will run from approximately 8:00 AM-1:00 PM. The 2024 Yard Sale map is below, or can be accessed via Google maps here! We will also have paper copies of this map outside our office at 2298 Young sometime in the afternoon of Friday, April 19.
