With this Festival, we are also raising Awareness about a culture that many of us live by and a genre of music that we all love and relate to. An empowering, diverse, open-minded, colorful and creative culture…

The Brooklyn Circus SF 4 Year Anniversary Block Party Celebration: This time of the year anticipation in the Bay area is at an all time high. This year we shook things up a bit with of our Interim pop up Shop followed by what all Bay area folks start their summer with, a classic “Brooklyn style block party”, courtesy of The Brooklyn Circus & The Fillmore Jazz Festival. They say time flies when you’re having fun, well 4 years in the Bay area did more than fly. Which is why, annually on 4th of July weekend, we host our 48-Hour Block Party.
Well, it’s that time again folks, when we round up the Best DJ’s in the Bay Area, give The Bearded Man a microphone and celebrate four flashing years on Fillmore Street. This year we joined forces again with The Fillmore Jazz Festival- “The Largest Free Jazz Festival on the West Coast” attracting over 90,000 guests and every year it gets bigger and better. This year the entertainment has been taken up a few notches; with Limited Edition BKc releases, a Beverage Garden, a Classic Photo Booth sponsored by PF Flyers, complimentary refreshments by Vitamin Water, and a Special Surprise Guest DJ has has been added to the bill. So for anyone who hasn’t been to San Francisco ever or in awhile — we promise this is a perfect opportunity to book that trip to have the time of your life. See you there!
