Once a harbor for Ellis Island immigrants, New York’s most populous borough has undergone a trendy transformation in the past 100+ years. This dynamic community is now home to the NBA franchise Nets, world famous landmarks such as Coney Island, and funky little neighborhoods just a quick bike ride away across the Brooklyn Bridge. The free flowing spirit of this eclectic environment has been described as “the conscience of New York”, and it provides for a sublime festival landscape that cannot be limited by genre or category. From the New York Festival of Lights to AFROPUNK -- Brooklyn has it all!
