Here are 5 reasons why you can’t miss this delicious festival:
There will be over 60 vendors featuring the Garden State’s hottest restaurants, food trucks and eateries. Get ready to indulge some tender barbecue, crispy empanadas, refreshing bubble tea, decadent desserts and much more.
For the first time ever, we are introducing a craft market with businesses selling homemade jewelry, clothing, crafted wood and more.
There’s something to do for everyone in the family. Kids (they get in for free!) can have a blast in our Happy Kidz Zone, sports-lovers can watch the games in our enhanced sports lounge with table games and guests can watch a variety of cooking demos all while enjoying live entertainment.
A majority of our 60+ vendors are small businesses and entrepreneurs. Come on out to support them, maybe you’ll find your new favorite restaurant or craft business.
