The Tribeca Family Festival once again invites you to the ultimate street fair and family celebration, in which a dazzling array of activities and performances unfold downtown in Tribeca. Come meander through the heart of the neighborhood as local schools, merchants, restaurants, and civic organizations join together for this all-day, family-friendly celebration.

Enjoy special performances on indoor and outdoor stages and throughout the neighborhood streets, along with surprise appearances by some of your favorite characters from movies, books, and television. The BMCC Plaza Stage will feature professional acts of Broadway performers along with emerging talent from right here in Tribeca.

In the courtyard at BMCC and along Greenwich Street, local restaurants and merchants will offer Tribeca's finest foods, refreshments, and merchandise. Local schools will sponsor a variety of fundraising activities, from hairspray painting to bookmark making.

For the first time, families can attend a FREE screening of a Tribeca Family Festival feature film after the Street Fair. This special presentation of Snowmen, hosted by the Tribeca Cinemas Kids Club, will be screened at 7:00 pm on Saturday, May 1 at BMCC Tribeca PAC, Theatre 1. The line forms at 6:00 PM at the theater, and tickets are available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Fly a kite, create life-size bubbles in the Bubble Garden, get creative in the Arts & Crafts Pavilion, dance to live music and put a smile on your face... It's a great time to take to the streets of the neighborhood, so join us for a special day of fun!
