Submitted by Stephanie Ogozalek on
Due to expected rain on Saturday, some outdoor events may be canceled or rescheduled. Before you head out, check the event's official website for updates. One of fall's biggest and oldest celebrations, the 88th annual Feast of San Gennaro, takes over Little Italy this weekend with rides, vendors and delicious food. Meanwhile, you can go fly a kite at the annual fest in Brooklyn Bridge Park, sample delicious sweets at Rockaway's NYC Honey Fest or find out about everything the 92nd Street Y has to offer families at its StreetFest on the Upper East Side.
There's some great culture on tap, too, including the National Ballet of Canada’s interpretation of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland at Lincoln Center, a FREE screening of Dolphin Tale 2 in Soho and an awesome $20 ticket deal on some of the best Off-Broadway shows for kids.
All of our best bets for this weekend are below. You can find additional options in our Event Calendar and our Fall Fun Guide.
