The City of Hoboken hosts this annual event the first weekend of every May and it is always a day that I look forward to.

Hoboken Arts and Music Festival | Spring 2012

The Hoboken Arts and Music Festival Spring 2012 is almost here! 

On Sunday May 6th the annual festival will happen come "rain or shine" as it reads the Hoboken city website!

We're hoping no rain of course! Starting at 11a.m. and taking over Observer Highway at Washington Street all the way up to 7th street. Hoboken's main swag will be lined with dozens and dozens of vendors and residents plus visitors all walking around, enjoying themselves.

Great street food plus a few gourmet stands as usual, lots of artists displaying art, photography, jewelry, crafts and more all for sale. Plus you can't miss the huge line up of musicians that will be performing throughout the day on different stages throughout.

Just take a look at the jam packed music schedule!  Sadly I'm out of town and will miss the Spring festival but I'll be thinking about kettle corn and fried Oreos - yummm
