EEBC @ PITTONKATONK!
We’re stoked to be back at Pittonkatonk providing beer and Barmy to this awesome festival! We’ll be on-site, all day for the 11th annual Pittonkatonk festival celebrating music, community, and activism.
What is Pittonkatonk?
“On Saturday, May 11, 2024, the Pittonkatonk May Day Festival will once again be held at the Vietnam Veterans Pavilion in Schenley Park, marking a day-long extravaganza of global music, international food vendors, social and environmental justice activism. As Pittsburgh's only world music festival, Pittonkatonk stands as a beacon of diversity and unity, offering a unique blend of musical acts and community engagement. From the pulsating beats of Balkan Brass to the vibrant melodies of Cumbia, Live Hip-Hop, Bomba, Samba, and Afro-Futurism, Pittonkatonk curates a melting pot of genres, ideologies, and cultures, forging connections across boundaries and generations.
Entering its milestone 11th year, Pittonkatonk has evolved from its roots as a branch of the Honk festivals to become an indispensable platform for cultural exchange. This year's lineup features an eclectic array of performers from Puerto Rico, Congo, Colombia, Palestine, Poland, Canada, and beyond, reflecting the festival's commitment to showcasing the rich tapestry of global music.”
In lieu of the traditional potluck, this year's festival will feature an enticing selection of international food vendors, offering tantalizing culinary delights from around the world.
What is East End’s part?
As mentioned above, we’ll be vending both beer, cider and N/A Barmy Soda for the length of the festival! We always bring a nice spread so there’ sure to be something for everyone.
Pittonkatonk is always a blast and we’re thrilled to once again be a part of this amazing festival. Hope to see you there!
