Come this Saturday and pinch us cause we can’t believe it – the Hester Street Fair is back April 14th and we are ready for you - all of you - to come start it up with us. Check out the flyer below and read on to get a glimpse of what to expect - we would tell you to RSVP or like the event to find out more but we already know you know it’s going to be 77° and sunny and you’re gonna want to be at the Park with us.
EVENT DETAILS
Music
JIL
“Despite a number of high-profile performances with the likes of Pusha T and Dev Hynes, electro-RnB act JIL have kept a relatively low profile up until now… The band’s sound is a head-bopping mix of distorted synths and guitars, booming percussion and the soulful, pristine vocals of their anonymous singer.” –Deli Magazine
Pretty Sick
“Pretty Sick is a perfect punk soundtrack for the city. They have that stripped down style, the seventies sound of St. Marks Place as seen by the artful, smart, strange girls of Gen Z.” –office magazine
Food
Hester Street’s neighbor L’estudio is hooking us up with grilled fish, chicken, and al pastor tacos with root vegetable slaw. The Fried Kitchen returns with their serious sandwich situation including the “Club” and classic chicken and waffles. Be on the lookout for some amazing baos from C Bao and our favorite Jamaican curry from Rosey.
Drinks
This Saturday we will have $4 Old Blue Last and our new “Drinks” booth will be stocked full of Rise Cold Brew and Red Bull – which we hear goes great with beer – we know we’re going to try it. And for the pinnacle of perfect health head over to our favorite vendor Pilot Kombucha.
New Full Season Vendor: Rollie
We are excited to have this super lightweight stylish shoe created by Australian designer, Vince Lebon for his flight attendant wife, Kat aka Rollie, at the Hester Street Fair all season. Literally lighter than a pair of bananas, Rollies are your perfect shoes for summer.
