Summer is here! The sunny season has officially kicked off in New Jersey, and that means it’s the perfect time to go down the shore. All the popular beach towns kick into high gear around this time of year, with seasonal attractions and restaurants opening, but one city knows how to celebrate the start of summer like no other. Beachstock, a massive beach festival in Margate City, NJ, is actually the largest free beach party in the entire country. That’s right – this massive celebration of sports, games, live music, and countless other activities is completely free, with delicious food and desserts on the grounds for purchase. It’s taking place on June 24th starting at 8 AM and going well into the night, and we can’t think of a better way to say hello to a summer of fun and excitement.

Margate City is one of New Jersey's most beautiful beaches, but it's never been as exciting as it is when Beachstock comes to town!
