The 50th Annual Polish Fair in Polish Town, Riverhead!
I Lived for this as a kid. My babcia (Grandmother) would get us all decked out in our traditional Polish garb and we would head out to dance with all the other Polish kids. My babcia was a seamstress, so we had some elaborate and gorgeous outfits!
There is a plethora of spectacular events. The opening ceremony is 8/16 at 10am. At 12pm, check out the Polish wedding and parade followed by dancing and live music. Make sure to visit the kid's corner at the corner of Pulaski St. There will be pony rides, a petting zoo, games, crafts and firefighting drills.
Come hungry! Pierogies are a must. The Pierogi eating contest at Sunday at 1pm on the main stage.
As always, the streets will be filled with vendors, beer booths and food stands/trucks. Witness the amazing folk dancers, listen to live music and immerse yourself in the Polish culture.
