Midtown Village’s Fall Festival surrounded Capo13 this Saturday (I mean the festival literally
took place right in front of our doors) and boy did we make a lot of tipsy party people happy. The streets were flooded
with extremely ‘festive’ folks celebrating Octoberfest and we were happy to
serve up tons of gelato for the festivities. The
crowd favorite seemed to be our Sweet Potato Pecan Praline gelato closely
followed by Zucca.
On Sunday, Outfest
(an awesome gay pride block party) was right down the street and although it
was rainy, there was a lot of energy on the block and we could hear the party
from inside Capogiro. After my shift was
over at four, I meandered down the street with my friend Alyssa to check it
out. There was literally gaiety all
around; cool vendors, interesting foods, live performances, happy people, and
drag queens strutting their stuff. The
atmosphere was welcoming and exciting.
Both fests were
something to see, and if you missed either or both of them this year, be sure
to attend them next year!! These kinds
of festivals really represent the growth and cultural development of our Philadelphian
Community!!
