The Feast of San Gennaro returns TODAY for its 100th year.
The 11-day festival runs through Sunday, Sept. 27, along Mulberry Street between Canal and Houston, with additional blocks on Hester and Grand.
The Feast began in 1926 as a one-day celebration organized by Neapolitan immigrants living along Mulberry Street. It has since expanded into an annual street festival with food vendors, games, live entertainment and religious observances, and shoulder-to-shoulder crowds.
Hours are 11:30 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. daily, extending to midnight on Friday and Saturday. Admission is free.
The Grand Procession takes place on Sept. 19 following Mass at Most Precious Blood Church. The statue of San Gennaro will be carried along Mulberry and Mott streets between Canal and Houston.
