ATLANTIC CITY - DylanFestAC, the celebration of all things Bob Dylan and his connection to the Jersey Shore, returns to Mississippi Avenue with a street fair, art show and live-music concert Saturday, Aug. 25.
The festival will open with a free street fair from 3-6 p.m. at the Noyes Arts Garage and outside Dante Hall.
The fourth annual Dylan Fest AC concert, presented by Formica Bros.
