    I get dragged to this every year invariably, kicking, screaming, hiding in the basement and holding…read moremy breath until someone in my not so sweet family thinks better of their folly and leaves me home -- ginormous pigs, fried butter, fifty pound eggplants and swarms of mosquitoes are to put it charitably, not my thing. However, somehow the overwhelming earnestness of the fair wins me over and I find myself savoring an ice cream cone while listening to a string band playing a not so bad version of foggy mountain breakdown and hoping they don't follow it up with the devil went down to Georgia. Every year I bit_h and moan and every year I very find myself having fun. There's nothing more worthy of five stars than that.

    The Monmouth County Fair has been an annual event for 42 yrs. Parking is a freebie but $8 is the…read moreentrance fee. The fair is always for 4days/nights and is for the whole family. Every year it seems to get bigger, with rides for all ages, attractions, and the specialty events presented by the 4H club. All types of farm animals that everyone can see and feed. Even a petting zoo area. There are also 2 main stages where at designated times attractions are presented for large audiences. There are all types of vendors to satisfy your wants. Who doesn't like a summer fair? Note: Seniors are free on Sunday. Kudos to the park attendants. They did a great job in keeping order and the grounds clean. Plenty of Porto johns.

    A great yearly event that hasn't been reviewed much lately. Judging by the crowd it appears to be a…read morevery popular event. There is live music, a craft, beer, garden, food trucks and crab fenders. There's a bunch of things to do for the kids. What I thought was cute was that you can kiss a pet for a dollar I believe it's the first weekend of every October.

    Take a trip back 300 years to a date when we were still a colony in the British Empire, when many…read moreestablished towns grew as trading posts and became horse feeding stops between large city designations. Such is the humble beginnings of Allentown New Jersey, halfway between New York & Philadelphia. This was all before Snookie & MTV trashed all things Jersey and created late night TV fodder for all those talking heads, despite the fact that those Jersey Shore invaders were not Jerzee natives. In 1706 Nathan Allen bought much of the farmland and built 3 mills and the area was known as Allen's Town, and morphed into today's Allentown. George Washington slept here on his way to Crossing the Delaware. That building is still on Main St. So many historical little goodies for you history buffs. Now, for the fest right on Main St. The 2nd weekend of October every year. The weather makes all the difference, ... get a nice sunny day and you can take in all the charm of this lively little town and enjoy and stuff your face with your favorite Jersey tasty treat. Pork roll-n-cheese, sausage-n-peppers, sweet local corn, Fried clams/clam rolls, Zeppoles (Jersey's fried dough with powdered sugar, so bad and soooo good) and then every local restaurant sets up shop to show off their signature dishes. When you're done prepare to roll out smiling with a satisfied pallet! The Civil War reenactment in the adjacent park is very well done and Nerdvana for us History geeks :-) Definitely a cool stop on fall day!

    Portugal Day is the national holiday for the country of Portugal and is celebrated annually on June…read more10th. Throughout the world, Portuguese communities celebrate the day, as well. Portugal Day in the Ironbound is a big deal and takes over Ferry Street yearly for one weekend every June. Check it out at least once. It's pretty cool. There's so much to experience - music in the streets, a parade, costumes, delicious cuisine at food stands and served at many of the restaurants lining Ferry street, huge sangria drinks and Bacardi lemonade drinks. It's a big party. It's free to walk around, but some places have private celebrations that you can enter by paying an entrance fee. I know that Iberia charged $20 to enter their lot where they had their own food stands and entertainment. I didn't go inside, but my friends went and said it was pretty cool. You'll have fun either way - going the free route or paying for a more exclusive experience. Portugal Day is a fun time and something to check out in the Ironbound in June.

    I have been coming here for years. I've come with friends, i've come with family. either way- its…read morefun. You have to get the big tub of Sangria at sol-mar tent . Its $15 but so worth it. Also, try sardines, fried eel, octopus, and the ribs. For the young people, theres drinking and dancing. Theres a parade for all those that like that. Yes, sometimes it gets a little crazy in the streets. Yes, there usually is trash everywhere b/c people dont use the trash cans. Yes, parking can be tough. Yes, you still should experience it!
