SPIRIT's 7th Annual Summer Recess Festival

Summer Recess is our biggest and wildest party of the year. It’s an all-day all-night anything goes food & music festival starting outside at 2pm and moving inside at 9pm
Daytime festival goers can eat, shop, and mingle with a thoughtfully curated group of some of our favorite local vendors, plus interact with and support countless artists within the community. The Main Stage will return to 51st Street, in front of Spirit, featuring Baltimore-based electronic recording artist Dan Deacon as the headlining act. Spiritual folk singer/songwriter Frank Hurricane will headline the Garden Stage outside, and NY dance music veteran Eli Escobar will finish out the event headlining the Hall stage after dark. Nighttime sees the festivities shift indoors to two levels of live performances, with food available from Spirit’s late-night pizza kitchen and full bars on both floors.
The outdoor portion of the festival is free from 2-5pm, open to people of all ages, and will run from 2pm until 9pm. The 21+ night portion runs from 9pm until 2am. Tickets are available in advance at https://www.showclix.com/event/7th-summer-recess plus at the festival entrance or Spirit doors if not sold out in advance. Outdoor day passes are $5, indoor night passes are $10, and combined are $15.
