Foodies brace yourself – the Smorgasburg Food Market will return to the Financial District this month.
The Port Authority announced Wednesday that a curated version of Smorgasburgs world-class market will be a weekly fixture at the World Trade Center Oculus Plaza campus from 11:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. every Friday from April 12 through Oct. 25.
Smorgasburg is the largest outdoor weekly food market in the United States. It was established in 2011 as a spinoff of Brooklyn Flea, and attracts 20,000 to 30,000 visitors a day to eat from 100 vendors at its Brooklyn markets in Williamsburg and Prospect Park in the spring and summer months, and thousands to its Sunday market in Downtown Los Angeles.
“We at Smorgasburg are humbled to return to the World Trade Center and to add to the fabric of such a storied site,” Smorgasburg co-founder Eric Demby said in a statement.
