The award recognizes the festival's engaging digital presence and the work that goes into connecting residents and visitors with one of Grand Prairie's most popular community events.
Through photos, videos, event information, and behind-the-scenes content, the Main Street Fest social media channels help build excitement for the annual celebration.
Main Street Fest brings the community together each year for three days of live entertainment, carnival rides, arts and crafts vendors, food, family activities, and more. This year's festival is set for October 23-25 in Downtown Grand Prairie.
