Kids Fest Newport brings a full afternoon of free, family‑friendly fun to Downtown Newport, filling the streets with hands‑on activities, lively games, and exciting attractions for kids of all ages. From giant Jenga and backyard battle games to bounce houses, slides, a rock wall, and the always‑popular petting zoo, the event offers a safe, energetic space for children to explore, play, and create. Families can enjoy arts and crafts, face painting, obstacle courses, and unique experiences like the Kids Fireman Rodeo and Spider Jump, all presented as part of the Monster Series. Held on Saturday, September 19 from noon to 6 p.m., Kids Fest celebrates community, imagination, and outdoor fun in the heart of Newport.
