💙 Southern Lux Living Proudly Presents: Meet in the Street 2026 💙
There’s something special about spring in Wake Forest.
The weather warms up, downtown starts to buzz again, and the community comes together in a way that just feels… right.
And for me, one of the highlights every single year is the incredible
Meet in the Street Festival 2026.
This year is especially meaningful because Southern Lux Living has the honor of being the Presenting Sponsor, and I truly couldn’t be more excited.
A Wake Forest Tradition Like No Other
If you’ve ever been to Meet in the Street, you already know it’s not just an event.
It’s the event.
Held in historic downtown Wake Forest, this long-standing festival (now in its 44th year!) brings together everything that makes this community so special: local businesses, live music, amazing food, and thousands of people coming together for a day of fun.
From artisan vendors and food trucks to live performances and kids’ activities, there’s something for everyone, and it’s completely free to attend.
And if you’ve never experienced it before… this is your sign.
Why This Matters to Me (And Southern Lux Living)
Real estate has always been about more than just homes for me.
It’s about community.
It’s about knowing where your people are, where your favorite coffee shop is, where your kids grow up making memories, and the events that bring all of that together.
Meet in the Street is exactly that.
It’s neighbors running into each other on White Street.
It’s small businesses getting the spotlight they deserve.
It’s families, friends, and newcomers all feeling like they belong here.
And being able to support something that creates that kind of connection?
That’s what it’s all about.
What to Expect in 2026
This year’s event is shaping up to be one of the best yet.
✨ Live music throughout the day
🍔 A full lineup of food vendors + sweet treats
🛍️ Local shops, makers, and small businesses
🎨 A brand-new Artisan Village featuring handmade goods
🚒 Family-friendly experiences (including “touch-a-truck” style exhibits)
🍻 A beer garden to relax and enjoy the day
With more than 100 vendors and thousands of attendees each year, it truly turns downtown Wake Forest into the heart of the community for the day.
More Than a Sponsor, A Part of the Community
Being the Presenting Sponsor isn’t just about having a name attached to an event.
For me, it’s about showing up.
It’s about investing in the place we call home and supporting the people who make it what it is.
Wake Forest has given so much to me, my family, and my business—and this is just one small way to give back.
Come Say Hi 👋
If you’re planning to attend (and you absolutely should), I would love to see you there.
Whether you’re a longtime client, a neighbor, or someone who’s just starting to explore the area, come by, say hello, and enjoy everything this amazing community has to offer.
Because at the end of the day, that’s what Southern Lux Living is all about.
Not just helping you find a home…
…but helping you feel at home here.
