May 12: Brooklyn Pigfest

The weather forecast, which predicted rain, might have scared some people off, but we were going to the Brooklyn Brewery's Sixth Annual Pigfest come rain or shine. Luckily, we had sunshine galore, so we were able to sample some amazing barbecue without trying to juggle an umbrella along with our ribs, chicken, pulled pork and beer.

Rain or shine, there will be cold beer, live music, and Niman Ranch pork and chicken slow-cooked by the Waterfront Alehouse's own Sam Barbieri, Steve Harkavy, Bon Soir Caterers' Jeff Reilly, and Rob Richter of Big Island Barbeque. Proceeds from this year's event go to the Brooklyn Bridge Park Conservancy. Beer and Food are included with admission. Advance tickets $75. At the door $85. 1PM-6PM at the Tobacco Warehouse in Brooklyn Bridge Park (corner of Water and Dock Sts., DUMBO).

Gothamist was taking a brown-bag lunch at Empire-Fulton Ferry State Park last week when we noticed preparations were underway for the Brooklyn Bridge Park Summer Film Series, which kicks off this Thursday, July 8.
