CAMBRIDGE (WBZNewsRadio) — It was a beautiful sunny day for the 38th annual MayFair Festival in Harvard Square on Sunday.

Streets were closed to traffic, opening the location up for festivalgoers to enjoy all the activities including street performers, live music, dance, and sidewalk sales.

Executive Director of the Harvard Square Business Association Denise Jillson talked about the diverse sampling of cultures from all over the world represented at the festival.

“We have probably over 70 vendors,” she said. “And we have a variety of crafts and one-off unique items as well as lots of food and music.”

Some of Harvard Square’s favorite restaurants took to the streets with outdoor dining patios, while live music on three stages featured genres including folk, Afro Pop, rock, funk and more.
