The downtown Sidewalk Sale features participating stores with sidewalk sales racks, and more, so set a reminder to shop, support, and save!
As summer winds down in downtown Winter Garden and residents and locals prepare for the fall season, the local mom-and-pop shops invite all to stroll the bustling sidewalks for sales, live music, and family fun. Our local shops always host unique treasures, from home goods, gifts, jewelry, clothing, home décor, and more.
The warm sunshine and friendly faces of local shopkeepers create a welcoming atmosphere, making the annual Downtown Summer Sidewalk Sale on Saturday, August 3, 2024, a perfect outing for families and friends.
Whether you’re hunting for a unique gift or simply enjoying the lively ambiance, sidewalk sales offer an excellent way to support small businesses and discover the heart of the community. Even better than treating yourself to a day of shopping and supporting locals is taking advantage of end-of-season clearance prices that you won’t want to miss out on.
