The Ninth Avenue Food Festival is the oldest and largest continuous food festival in New York City.
This year, the event will feature dozens of different New York restaurants and cuisines, over 60 art booths, and many small, independent food and beverage purveyors. An entire block will also be reserved for children’s rides and games, along with two stages for live entertainment and international music.
One exciting new addition to this year’s Festival is a specially curated section called “Food Truck Park.” Food Truck Park will contain the best and brightest of New York City’s food trucks all in one city block with café tables and chairs. (ED: WHERE IS THE FOOD TRUCK PARK?)
The Festival is on Saturday, May 18th, and Sunday, May 19th from 11:00 AM until 5:00 PM, on Ninth Avenue from 42nd to 57th Streets. It begins with an Opening Ceremony to celebrate the Festival’s 40th-Year Anniversary.
