Special Events

We’ve teamed up with Petro Home Services to give you the chance to win big this winter!

Our goal is to help at least 50 local families experience the magic of live theatre this holiday season. Last year we distributed over 400 tickets. With your help, we can do it again.

The Portsmouth Fairy House Tour is the world's largest fairy house tour. The 14th annual event will be held in Portsmouth's historic South End on the grounds of the Governor John Langdon House, Strawbery Banke Museum, and Prescott Park.

Enjoy the best summer has to offer with our brand new, limited VIP Table 4-Pack. This 4-Pack provides you with first choice of 3 concert and 1 Mary Poppins dates for a VIP Table for 4 on either our Federal Savings Bank VIP deck or lawn area (you pick)- all before they are available to the general public.

The Memorial Bridge 5k Road Race is a collaborative effort between Prescott Park Arts Festival and Seacoast Community School, followed by the 29th Annual Chili Cook Off!

On Sunday, October 7th, come and enjoy the generous samplings of more than a dozen local restaurants and experience one of the best Chili Cook-Off events around. Restaurants serve up their best chili in decorated booths for thousands of attendees to sample and cast their votes. We've seen Classic, Veggie, Chicken, Seafood... you name it, and we've got it!

Join us for a morning of stories, music, and creativity. Bunny Wonderland will read two of her favorite books highlighting inclusion and diversity. We’ll also get crafty and have a chance to get on your feet and dance! This event is geared towards ages 2-8, but all ages are welcome.

You'll meet and you'll greet, and be swept off your feet! Meet the cast of Seussical the Musical before catching a show at our Seuss-A-Palooza! We'll have carnival games, crafts, stories and more.  Kids (and parents too) can make their own truffula trees, catch one fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish, and pin the Hat on the Cat. There'll be face painting, a bubble machine, and a story corner. Lunch, courtesy of Dos Amigos, is included. Following the Seuss-A-Palooza, you'll enjoy our matinee presentation of Seussical the Musical at 1pm from a reserved prime-viewing area on the lawn.

Sample some of the finest craft beers, enjoy great food and music, and support the Prescott Park Arts Festival! Held on the grounds of beautiful Cisco Brewers Portsmouth, formerly Redhook Brewing, this event is being presented as a special fundraiser for the Prescott Park Arts Festival in partnership with Master Brewers Association of America and WHEB's The Morning Buzz.

Join us as we say thank you to the community that allows us to entertain them all summer long! Come to The Prop and get a free ice cream. And while you're here, pick up your membership as well!

Our goal is to raise $3,250 in just 24 hours to support our Family In Need Fund, and we can do it with your help!

Summer wouldn't be the same without warm nights in Prescott Park, surrounded by family, friends, and happiness. Will you help us meet our #GivingTuesday goal?
