Block party coming to Canterbury Road

Canterbury Road in Mountain Brook Village will be blocked off for a block party on Thursday, Oct. 1. The event will run from 6-8 p.m.

Shindigs food truck and live music by Will O’Rear and Brian Felder will be in the street, and the stores that line it will feature refreshments, special sales and door prizes. 

“We wanted to plan a fun event to kick off fall and to introduce the new stores,” said Elizabeth Adams, owner of Ex Voto Vintage.

The Village Poodle and Christine’s on Canterbury have both opened recently on the street. 

The event also coincides with Antiques at the Gardens, which takes place that weekend at Birmingham Botanical Gardens.

Participating stores include Antiquities, Beverly Ruff Antiques and Linens, Christine’s on Canterbury, Ex Voto Vintage, Marguerite’s Conceits, Mountain Brook Yoga, Mulberry Heights Antiques and The Village Poodle.
