Fanwood Ladies Night

Borough of Fanwood

Ladies Night filled downtown Fanwood with excitement and shoppers for the tenth consecutive year on Thursday, June 1st, 2023. Local merchants and vendors from around the area set up shop in and around the South Avenue plaza between Fanwood Crossing I and II. There were free food and wine samples and a tricky tray auction and raffle featured prizes donated by local businesses. Comedian and impresario Marklyn “MisterDirect” Johnson was the emcee for the evening. 

Ladies Night is organized by the Greater Westfield Area Chamber of Commerce and the Borough of Fanwood.
