HOLLAND, Michigan — With COVID-19 restrictions lifting, the annual Street Performer Series will return to Holland this summer. Each Thursday from 6:30-8:30 p.m., artists will take to the streets of downtown Holland to perform. The series runs from June 17 until Aug. 19.
“We’re very excited to be able to host the Street Performer Series again this summer after having to cancel last year’s event,” said Downtown Holland Marketing Coordinator Kara de Alvare. “We know that so many members of our community and visitors to the area look forward to the event each summer."
Extra safety precautions will be taken, including closing 8th Street to traffic to allow for extra social distancing, de Alvare said. Performance locations will also be limited and visitors will be encouraged to wear a mask if they can.
