Always lots of fun. I just came back from the festival today and am happy to say that it was a…read moresuccessful experience for me for a 5th straight year. The weather wasn't great this year, but the energetic and entertaining Haitian RaRa parade more than made up for it.

Sit down on a street corner to eat your lunch and enjoy some mucis at one of the many stages. Let your kids enjoy amazing face painting and other craft making projects. Do a little shopping along the many set up tents. Finally get ready to dance and marvel at the colorful and loud parade. Full of feathers, colors and amazing costumes, the parade will astonish you. We stayed for the entire show and saw beautiful troups and lots of people having a grand time. Definitively a must do and see!

This might have not been one the greatest festivals I've attended but it did give me something to…read moredo on Saturday evening. Most importantly, it was FREE and Chicago was performing! Still humming, Your the Inspiration.. Yep, my soul is old lol. Warren Street, such a small side street... They do provide carnival games, a few kid friendly rides and plenty of food. I did treat myself to some little neck and cherry stone clams. 6 for $8, why not?!? I also grabbed a sweet Italian sausage with peppers and onions for $8. If you are curious about food prices in general, what else can you expect from festivals besides overpriced? The performance stage is located all the way towards the end, where it was heavily congested. You basically had to push your way through.. Also, adjacent to the stage is where you'd find the roped off beer and wine stand. I did notice the older attendees who brought camping chairs. I didn't know where to stand as I did not want to obstruct their view. Awkward! I you decide to go, I would recommend looking over the the event details beforehand. You would think I was smart enough to do so! I didn't realize Chicago would be out at 9pm. After being there for roughly 1.5 hours, I was ready to leave... Ooh! And parking is free at the lot, follow the signs! Street parking is free after 6pm as well.

2009 was my first time going to this fest, and we walked right in. No line. No wait. No trouble…read more 2010 was an entirely different story entirely. We waited outside in the cold for nearly 2 hours, just to get in... to taste an array of pumpkin beers... to go out to celebrate Halloween... to sip, sip, sip and savor... Was it worth it? Was it worth the 2 hour wait in the freezing cold? Was it worth the $10 cover charge? Was it worth the $20 cost in tasting tickets? HECK YES. Next year, I'm dressing up as the Michelin tire mascot. This way, I'll be really, really warm for the come-on-just-let-us-in-already wait outside.

The festival has many tents and booths offering strange combinations of fluff with foods that don't quite seem to work (pierogis?), but people seemed to enjoy it nonetheless. Of course, there was also no deficit of fluffernutter sandwiches and rice krispies treats going around. I count myself privileged to have witnessed the 100th year anniversary version of the fluff festival, because clearly that's a momentous occasion for the fluff fanatics out there. But if you're in Union Square the next time the festival comes around, go check it out.
