Brooklyn Night Bazaar Taking Over The Beach Scene At Jacob Riis This Summer

What: The team behind the Brooklyn Night Bazaar has signed a multi-year lease with the National Parks Service in the Rockaways to "re-imagine the beach experience at Jacob Riis Park" with "abundant activities, entertainment, shopping, food, and drinks." Starting Memorial Day weekend, the newly-coined Riis Park Beach Bazaar will present rock shows on Saturday and Sunday afternoons, as well as offer beach chair rentals, games, food from vendors like The Brooklyn Star and Fletcher’s BBQ, and a variety of alcoholic beverages.

In keeping with the Brooklyn Night Bazaar theme, a number of vendors will operate along the boardwalk selling arts and crafts, antiques, new and vintage clothing, sunglasses, jewelry and records. We're also told there will be "nail artists, tattoo artists, hair stylists, tarot readers" and more. Here's the live music calendar, which is still coming together but kicks off May 23rd with MOTHXR​ (featuring Penn Badgley of Gossip Girl, Greetings From Tim Buckley), Avan Lava, Religia, and Banker$ DJ.

When: May 23rd, 2015
