The Borough of Sea Bright is proud to announce an exciting new community tradition: Sea Bright Day, debuting on Saturday, September 27, 2025, from 2:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. (rain date October 5).

The Sea Bright Business Collective, craft and artisan market, and recreation committee will also keep the day lively with vendors, bounce houses, and more. Guests won’t want to miss the chance to leave their mark on a handprint mural along the seawall or participate in the Sea Bright Day Passport challenge to win the Ultimate Sea Bright Gift Basket.
“This event is all about celebrating the heart and soul of Sea Bright—our people, our businesses, our services, and our spirit,” said Mayor Brian Kelly. “We are thrilled to launch what we know will become a great annual tradition.”
