Fells Point Historic Festival

Great. It was Hip. Cool, Fun. Mostly 20s and 30’s with a smattering of 40’s and 50
s.
It located next to the inner harbor and a great neighborhood to live in and when they close the streets for the festival it is lined with food trucks and market carts.
You could sample any drink from any of the local bars and pubs and I even saw a micro. Food ranged from Crab cakes to Ribs from NC to everything in between.
Music flowed from bars and pubs and some were even staged outside.
Got to see a Jersey Shore/​Philly band there called STELLAR MOJO who were great. Hip hop, top 40, rap, You name it they did it,
TIP: Don’t wear heels. Lots of cobblestones.

I had a blast at this festival over the weekend. Lots of great food vendors, music, and art. One of my favorite local bands Jah Works played this year and it was great to see them since it had been such a long time. They are a super fun reggae band that play a lot of great covers as well as their own music. I also bought a photograph artist Al Ewing for a very reasonable price. I will absolutely be going back next year!

Per usual I have a blast every year. Plenty of good food, good folks and awesome fun!
I look forward to this each and every year. :)

Best Baltimore festival, by far! My mother owns a business in Fells, so I am a bit biased but I havent met anyone who hasnt enjoyed this event.
Food is resonably priced, music is legit and the beer garden (well. its a beer garden). 98 Rock Radio Station sets up and commentates the usual Ravens game on the BIG SCREEN in the beer garden, something you dont want to miss. Plus its always the first weekend in October, which kind of «kicks off» the fall season, football and pumpkin spice everything!
Try the local restaurants and small family owned businesses in Fells, they wont disappoint and they wont «jack up» the prices for food. Cheers, hon :)

one of the best opportunities to people watch in baltimore!

I always had a good time at the Fells Point Fest. Good food, good tunes, and more pit beef than you can shake a chicken-​on-​a-​stick at.
The beer garden is kind of lame though… you have to wait in line for hours, then get corralled into a pen, and if you leave you can’t come back in. Screw that… I would just run over to Friends, sit in the air conditioning, pound down a few Resurrections, and head back out for more gluttony.

Also known as the Fells Point Fun Festival, usually held in the first weekend of October. Located in a pretty area of the city (Fells point), right by the waterside.
I’ve went the past two years and it’s always been a lot of fun looking through the various items and goods on sale, free samples (ie: Lara bars, Cascadian Farms cereal) and eating and drinking a bunch of tasty treats. This year (2010), there wasn’t as many free samples as the year before, but there were still a decent offering of freebies. Every time, I always have to stop at the dog treat stand, where they seem to smoke all their bones and odds and ends (ie: trachea, hooves, ears, skin, cartilage-​y parts) for dogs. It’s fresh and needs to be kept either refrigerated or frozen, but my dogs really like them a lot.
Most notably, SX and I like to eat from the Latin American vendors, which are located near the carnival rides. We always stop by Pintango Gelato too.
Since I live outside of Baltimore, I face a bit of a parking dilemma. I just park at the parking garage near Whole Foods and walk towards the fair to avoid the unnecessary traffic of people trying to get into the parking garages closer to the fair.

Best festival of the year. I’ll be honest, I didn’t make it out of the beer garden, but I know I had a great time. Can’t wait for next year.
