ENTERPRISE, Ala. (WDNews) — Enterprise Parks and Recreation will host the annual Festival in the Park on Saturday, May 2, 2026, at Johnny Henderson Park.
The free, family-friendly community event will run from 4 to 9 p.m., an hour later than in previous years, and will conclude with fireworks at dark.
Festival in the Park is Enterprise Parks and Recreation’s largest free community event and features a wide range of family-friendly activities, live entertainment and fireworks.
Activity vendor applications are now being accepted through Enterprise Parks and Recreation’s RecDesk platform and will remain open through March 27. Vendor spaces cost $200 for a 10-by-10 area. Vendors are required to provide an activity at their space, but sales are not permitted. Promotional items related to a business or organization may be distributed. Officials encourage interested groups to apply early due to high demand.
Enterprise Parks and Recreation is also warning vendors and the public to be aware of scams. Payments for activity vendor spaces will only be accepted through the official RecDesk portal. Vendors are advised not to respond to inquiries through Facebook comments or submit payments outside the official platform.
Questions about vendor applications or the event can be directed to Enterprise Parks and Recreation at (334) 348-2682.
Food vendor applications, coordinated through the Enterprise Rotary Club, will open March 16. Additional details about specific activities and musical acts are expected to be released closer to the event.
Festival in the Park began in 1999 as Children’s Festival in the Park and has continued to grow over the years, offering activities and entertainment for all ages.
