Eighth Avenue Street Fair and the Flea Market, again...

Posted: 9/18/08 at 10:05am

So, anyone who went to the Broadway Flea Market last year remembered the fun of having a New York City Street Fair right next door on 8th Avenue which caused the already packed market to be even more crowded. Well, it's happening again this year:

Sunday September 21st
Eighth Avenue Fall Festival
(on 8th Avenue from 42nd - 57th St.)

Still haven't decided if I am happy about this. Just means I have to get there earlier this time.

Thanks!

Oh geez. It happened once - they had to let it happen again. Something is wrong with the city scheduling. There was a street fair right by radio city on the night of the Tonys! Not the best planning ever.

Only if u enjoy meat-like products on a stick, jordangirl. And yes, I know how easily that can be turned into a sexual reference.

Oh I had a good funnel cake there last year. (Well, they called it something different, but it was a funnel cake.)

Great, getting to 45th Street is going to be a bit annoying because I refuse to attempt to walk through Shubert Alley considering where the photo booth has been located the past few years.
