We’re looking towards another year and we are happy to get back to our roots of creating space for people to gather, celebrate and discover what unites and propels a local community. And on top of it all, we are very happy to be showcasing the best small businesses in NYC.

For Opening Weekend, you’ll have to grab one of our Hester Street Fair shopping bags back near the DJ tent! Dance your way to the vendors with sounds provided by our DJs Fulathela and a special Sunday musical journey by XPIZZA. Sip throughout the day on a spritz and soft drinks over in our new beverage tent. Lastly, shop your hearts out with our roster of 60+ vendors those who you’ve loved for years, and new vendors that’ll get you hooked.

Season 14 kicks off on April 22nd and 23rd 2023, from 11-6 pm. Join us down at The Seaport and find yourself within a diverse space that is open to everyone. We invite you, your friends, and your family to walk through the different worlds all within NYC at one place: Hester Street Fair. Through collaboration and promotion of local creatives, crews, and commerce we expand our fair’s experience past a typical marketplace.

Explore the 60+ vendors we’ll have each day!

Vintage, food, baked goods, homewares, beauty, jewelry, handmade, new fashion, art, games, holistic, pantry goods, pets, accessories, tarot readings, and more.
