It’s that time of year again, and a mile’s worth of shops and restaurants spanning several neighborhoods is gearing up for the 38th Annual Atlantic Antic this Sunday. As usual, organizers are expecting a whopping 600 vendors and over a million visitors to descend upon Atlantic Avenue between 4th Avenue and Hicks Street, for what has long been considered to be the biggest and best street fair in the city. Sure, there are your typical socks for sale and street meat vendors aplenty, but you will also find local arts and crafts, food from homegrown hotspots, live bands, beer gardens, face painting, dancing, and more. Whether you’ve never made it to the Antic before or you go every year, take the opportunity to experience one of Brooklyn’s most beloved traditions this weekend. For optimal fun, be sure to bring ample cash, comfortable shoes, a bunch of friends, and a hearty appetite.
