The festival is to include children’s rides, games, street vendors and food along Woodcleft Avenue, officials said. Musicians will play at the Esplanade and Sea Breeze Park from noon to 7 p.m.
“Every year, thousands of visitors come to the Nautical Mile and our festival is the highlight that launches Freeport’s boating and restaurant season,” Mayor Robert Kennedy said in a news release.
