Brooklyn, New York- August 29, 2023 – The Atlantic Antic™ Festival presented by Atlantic Avenue Local Development Corporation (AALDC) will be held on Sunday, October 1, 2023, 12-6 pm, rain or shine. Brooklyn’s oldest and largest street festival spans 10 blocks through the heart of Brooklyn, passing through the neighborhoods of Boerum Hill, Cobble Hill, Brooklyn Heights, and Downtown Brooklyn. 

For 48 years, Atlantic Avenue businesses and vendors from NYC and beyond have electrified the street with something for everyone including food, clothing, crafts, jewelry, and more. Attendees can stroll the avenue with friends and families to enjoy their favorite foods such as bbq, Asian buns, street corn, crepes, lemonade and fried ice cream!  

The Atlantic Antic™ features lots of free entertainment: 

  • The Atlantic Antic™ is proud to announce that for the first time Prospect Schools will present the popular parenting websites Mommy Poppins & Brooklyn Bridge Parents Fun Zone between Hicks and Henry Streets near the new NYU Langone Health – Cobble Hill Emergency Facility.
