things to do this weekend in queens nyc

DECEMBER is the month when we

transition to Daylight Savings Time and give Thanks for all that we have been given.

This month look for the NYC Marathon, Veterans Day Commemorations, Thanksgiving, Black Friday and the beginning of the holiday season.

Queens is also the host of numerous concerts, theater and film events, as well as great food, parks and good public transit. And while street fairs and farmers markets wind down, holiday markets and events begin to hit their stride.

The October photo featured above was taken at a Veterans' commemoration in Sunnyside Queens in a prior year. Enjoy.
