To Do
Dining Under the Stars
Reminiscent of the open-air cafes on Paris’ Avenue de Champs Elyseé and in the piazzas of Rome & Venice, al fresco dining is enjoyed in Media all summer long. Every Wednesday evening, May through September, the Dining Under the Stars™ event closes State Street from Jackson to Orange. Click here to learn more.
We Invite You to Stroll, Shop, and Dine!
Throughout The Year
Media is proud to play host to a series of diverse and exciting events each and every year. The season begins with the Chinese New Year Celebration, and culminates with the New Year’s Eve Celebration & Ball Drop… where else can you ring in the new year with a real ball drop? Long-running events like the America’s Music Festival Series (Americana Roots Ramble in April, Blues Stroll in June and Jazz By Night Celebration in November) continue to grow in popularity. Throughout the year, enjoy favorites such as the Food & Craft Festival and Santa’s Arrival.
