The calzones and cannolis are already flying in Manhattan’s Little Italy this weekend – but it’s not too late to get in on all the fun! The annual San Gennaro festival began on Thursday. The 11-day celebration salutes the patron saint of Naples and is expected to welcome over two million visitors to Little Italy’s famous Mulberry Street – coming for the food, the fun, and the live performances.
On Thursday, the Feast of San Gennaro kicked off with the evening Blessing of the Stands. That was followed by the 22nd Annual Cannoli Eating Competition on Friday. Revelers took in this year’s Grand Procession on Saturday, in a celebration filled with floats and celebrity sightings all afternoon. Don’t worry! There’s still plenty to see and do at this year’s feast!
