The popular Third Thursdays on State Street return in 2023 for a new season, May 18, of outdoor dining, extended shopping hours, live music, and family-friendly activities. Third Thursdays bring the community together and support restaurants and small businesses on State Street.
Parking Restrictions on State Street and Union Street in the event closure area begin at 4 PM on each Third Thursday. State Street is closed from Broad Street to Center Street and Union Street is closed from Linden Street to Cypress Street from 5 pm to 10 pm every Third Thursday from May through October. Please plan for traffic delays around the center of Kennett Square Borough due to the road closures.
Parking for Third Thursdays is available in the Parking Garage, which is now monitored 24 hours. You will take a ticket when you enter the parking garage and scan it at the kiosk at the exit before leaving to pay for your parking session.
To ensure an outdoor table, we recommend making a reservation. The following restaurants set up tables on State Street for Third Thursdays: Grain Craft Bar + Kitchen, Lily Asian Cuisine, La Verona, Portabellos, Trattoria La Tavola, and Sweet Amelia’s.
