2016 Easter Parade and Bonnet Festival – March 27
Easter is March 27th this year. To celebrate we recommend making your way to the Easter Parade and Bonnet Festival. It is quite the sight as you will find a sea of people wearing their best Easter bonnets. It has been a tradition for over 100 years.
Tribeca Film Festival & Tribeca Family Festival Street Fair – April 13 to 24
The Tribeca Film Festival draws millions of people every year and it even attracts celebrities from all walks of life. There are quite a variety of movies so there is sure to be something for everyone. Also, be on the lookout for the Tribeca Family Festival Street Fair (which is the kid friendly part of the Tribeca Film Festival). It sounds like a lot of fun for the whole family. There will be kid friendly games, movie screenings, live music, food and more!
NYC Hot Sauce Expo – April 23 to 24

In addition to the Macy’s Flower Show, you can also take in all the beautiful flowers at the Sakura Matsuri Cherry Blossom Festival at the Brooklyn Botanical Garden. It is also a celebration of Japanese culture and food and it is one of our favorite things to do in New York City every year.
