Be part of the annual Belmont Juneteenth Celebration, a vibrant event that highlights African American culture through music, art, food, and community connection. Held at Stowe Park in Historic Downtown Belmont, the celebration brings together visitors and residents for a day filled with entertainment, education, and cultural experiences.

Unlike any other local festival, the Belmont Juneteenth Celebration features a thoughtfully curated collection of vendors offering handmade goods, artwork, and food that reflect the richness and diversity of the African American experience. Throughout the day, guests can enjoy live performances including an African drum circle, steel drum music, and an evening R&B and jazz finale concert.

The event also includes free family-friendly activities and community health resources, creating an engaging experience for all ages in the heart of Belmont.

The celebration is hosted by Elements of Empowerment, a nonprofit organization dedicated to fostering cultural awareness, acceptance, and preservation through artistic and educational programming. Originally formed as a volunteer committee for Belmont’s first Juneteenth Celebration in 2012, the organization continues to partner with the City of Belmont to bring this meaningful community tradition to life each year.
