Naragansett Beer Neighbor Days Block Party

Definitely one of the most fun annual festivals in Providence, if you have the day free, come spend it at the block party of all block parties.
Free entry, live music, fun vendors and awesome giveaways — it’s the perfect combination for a great time, especially with ‘Gansett putting the entire thing together. You can score everything from cool threads to vintage vinyl while you sip your beer, and learn about awesome local businesses while you stroll the block.
I’ve been to this event three years in a row now, and can honestly say it’s one of my most favorite local events. Not to be missed, especially if you love ‘Gansett!

A day sporting an expertly mixed cocktail of my favorite ingredients — good music, good food, good folks, and (of course) great brews.
Beer trucks galore! No one knows how to typify RI locality like the dudes and dudettes from ‘Gansett beer. I’m personally a fall beer addict, and the Fest autumn brew was in full flow this day. There was also a good surplus of the Del’s Shandy being dished out for those who just couldn’t get enough. I coupled the copious liquid lunch with a delicious caesar wrap from Z Food truck and quickly found myself in some damn fine bliss. A quick stroll down the street (beer in hand I might add — the perks of a block party) and we found party part 2 kickin’ on at the E&O Tap — a great local dive.
The music selection was an amazing local variety, culminating with the amazing antics of a street marching band that struck a nostalgic cord with my inner band geek.
Events like these typify the amazing Providence community that is comprised of so many crosswinds in the cultural sphere. Kudos to all those involved — let’s keep ‘em comin’.
