The Newtown Market Day returns to the historic Newtown Borough this Saturday.

The event promises a day filled with festivities, food, and local talent.

Scheduled from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., the event will span the iconic Half-Moon Inn, Court Street, and Centre Avenue.

Among the highlights of the day, attendees can anticipate a blend of modern and colonial attractions. Local eateries will be serving their specialties alongside a farmer’s market. Artisans will be showcasing their crafts, and visitors can step back in time with colonial demonstrations that will showcase Newtown’s rich history.

Puppet shows will weave tales, while corn husking brings back a touch of the past.

But that’s not all; the sounds of music will echo throughout the borough with performances by musicians Bill Dooley, Steve Tourison, and Mike Pfeiffer.

For those feeling competitive, a pie-eating contest is sure to be a hit.

This year’s celebration marks the 47th Newtown Market Day.

The event is organized by the Newtown Historic Association.

For those seeking more details about the event, the Newtown Historic Market Day website offers information and updates.
