Little Italy comes to Long Island! At the 37th annual Feast of Mother Cabrini you can eat your way through the ¼ mile lit food promenade, enjoy festive live music, take a ride on one of the 25 thrill rides or show your skills in the midway.
Stay for the rides, watch the fireworks on August 23 or 31, listen to the music or cheer the participants in the Zepoli Eating Contest. Whatever you do, the admission is free, rides are Pay-one-price and proceeds benefit the many local charities of the Giuseppe A. Nigro Lodge #2234.
