Come and sample items from over 100 local food purveyors breweries wineries restaurants etc. If you are used to coming down to the market on Saturday, parking for this even is not bad at all. Entrance on Railroad Street had a much shorter line than the Union Street entrance. You get a tote bag, a wine glass and a tasting plate when you arrive. Wander for three hours tasting your favorite samples.. some vendors offered special discount coupons and a few places had items for sale.

These events can take place all across the city of Rochester, as there are many different experiences over the course of the festival. I've seen impressive large scale performances at the fringe festival such as a performance by Bandaloop on the side of five star city bank. I've also seen modernized Shakespeare as well as Drunk Shakespeare (Shotspeare). All of these experiences were top notch. I'd highly recommend attending at least one event each year! Check out the festival schedule early to grab your tickets for headliners before they sell out!

Very fun festival in a beautiful neighborhood. My first time visiting was cut short due to the…read morerain. When we arrived volunteers were passing out maps and available for questions. We were able to get in just in time to stop at a few vendors and purchase some hand made goods. The food truck area was set up with plenty of options and seating areas. Inflatable courses and bounce houses were also set up for the kids. We tried the Cousins Maine Lobster food truck which had a very long line. We used the mobile app to save time. Expensive but consistent with what I've paid for lobster rolls at a dine in restaurant. The roll was delicious and well worth the cost.

Lots of bight photographs and artists with their home made items. Mixed in with local food vendors and food trucks...so many choices and samples galore. Local radio stations with sign ups for prizes and giveaways. The people watching is the best, so much entertainment ...grab some food and sit back and enjoy! If you don't fill like the street food is your thing most of the restaurants on Park ave have outside seating too. I like to go every year for a nice walk and to check out the local artists all in one area.

There is less food than I expected. The art and other products available to buy are okay, but only a few places stood out as actually interesting among lots of generic stuff. Meanwhile, it turns the neighborhood into a zoo with lots of parties with beer pong on lawns and no parking anywhere. I'm told this is a big event, but I wasn't all that impressed with it. Seemed like any street fair anywhere, and nothing special, unfortunately.

I think most people go for the food and watch the dancing for a bit. The church itself is incredible to see, I was amazed at the stained glass windows, and how beautiful it is inside, definitely worth a walk through if you get the chance. The Gyro's I brought home were delicious! I know it's billed as a festival, but I only spent about a 1/2 hour there, If you like Greek food, I recommend, or do take out like me.

You could also have parked in the Quest Elementary Lot. We did that, and it was really difficult getting out of it. If we go next year, the shuttle is the better option. The festival has lots of food stands, from sausages, burgers, pizza logs, beef on wick, etc. I got a pint of freshly made apple cider from Zarpentine farms for $1.50. They had various sizes for you to take home. Two farms were selling pecks of apples in various quantities. I grabbed a quarter peck of honey crisps (about 8 apples) for $3. The inside of the festival had lots of festival arts and craft stuff, fudges, candy apples, homemade sauces, etc. I had to get a large cinnamon fried dough knot to go with the cider. It was freshly made, and taken right out of the fryer. This is a great family event, with live music and lots to eat.
