Our favorite locally-grown music festival, Hillstock returns to the nabe this weekend! They kick off with a great lineup for Make Music NY on Friday at the Putnam Triangle in partnership with our friends at the FAB Alliance, so check them out if you’re in the Fulton Street Area. On Saturday, they’re throwing their annual block party bash right here on Emerson between Myrtle and Park! Head to 106 Emerson from 11am-8pm for some great, FREE (!!!) music and comedy for all-ages. Myrtle BONUS: Show your Hillstock wristband for food and drink deals at 25 Myrtle businesses!

From their site, here’s what’s in store:
‘Saturday starts with the iconic Hillstock Block Party at 106 Emerson Place, a free all-ages event not to be missed. Expect large crowds for anti-folk progenitor Paleface, Brooklyn avant-garde legends Aa (Big A little a) and 19-piece punk-rock brass band What Cheer? Brigade. If all this weren’t enough, The Chris Gethard Show headlines the first-ever block party Comedy Stage, while Van Leeuwen Artisan Ice Cream brings some food truck flavor to Emerson Place!
