There is nothing like a summer in New York. So many things to do. We’ve covered one of our favorite summer festivals, Secret Summer NYC, for a few years now. What’s great about Secret Summer is that it features farm-to-bar cocktails, making it a unique tasting event. Taking place at The Foundry, Secret Summer brings the garden chic event to Long Island City, Queens. So what can you expect at this year’s event? Check out the deets on some of the sponsors below:

A fun new addition to this year’s event is Man vs Food host, Casey Webb will be on hand to judge the best cocktail at Secret Summer this year! The Foundry is a beautiful venue. It contrasts with the industrial look of certain parts of Long Island City. You also have a glimpse of the Ed Koch Bridge (formerly Queensborough / 59th Street Bridge)
