The summer festivals here on the East Coast keep popping up faster than the
flea markets in Williamsburg! The 7th
Afro-punk Festival comes to Brooklyn on 27-28 August so be sure to save the date. The free festival boasts headliners such as Santigold, Janelle Monae, Cee-Lo Green, Gym Class Heros, Das Racist and Kenna along with the Nike Battle For the Streets Skate and BMX competition.
If the line-up isn't enough of a pull, perhaps the Afro-Punk Bites and Beats Food Truck setup will get you to the festival as they promise to deliver over 20 of the best food vendors in New York City.
Keep an eye out for WGSN street style photographers at the festival as we continue the hunt for New York's trendsetters.
