Here’s our Hoboken Italian Festival feature for the second day of the festival and an excerpt from the story written by Patrick Lombardi: “Besides food and drinks, children and their families could enjoy some of the rides and games the festival has to offer, like the rock climbing wall stoically erect at one end of the festival.
There is also a pitching machine to test the velocity of your hardest fastball; as well as a Water Works stand provided by Paladin Amusements, and a few small children’s for younger guests.
2015’s Hoboken Italian Festival will conclude on Sunday, September 13th. So if you missed yesterday’s festivities, don’t worry: you have three more opportunities to take in the festivities. You can visit Frank Sinatra Park, enjoy some music, grab an Italian sausage, cheesesteak, or some pizza. Before you go, take a seat and marvel at the magnificent view of the New York City skyline across the Hudson River.” Click here to read the rest of the story.
Note, the procession of the Madonna del Martiri most likely has been rescheduled because of the rain. We are still trying to get the latest information on that. Update: We just learned that they started the procession at 1:30 pm and ended up at the festival at 3:30 pm. The procession is scheduled to finish up tonight at St. Francis Church at 8:00 pm.
