Williamsburg Waterfront Shows

The Williamsburg Waterfront – the new home of the Mcarren Park Pool Parties
Yes, the McCarren Park Pool shows are now just a bygone memory of slip-n-slide bliss. But the good news is that the party will continue this year on the Williamsburg waterfront. We’re particularly excited because FREEwilliamsburg favorite, Beach House, has just been added to the the roster. According to Brooklyn Vegan, they’ll be opening for Grizzly Bear for the affordable, recession-friendly price of, well, FREE!
No word on whether there will be a slip-n-slide this year, but we’ll be keeping you up-to-date on all the Williamsburg waterfront shows at www.freewilliamsburg.com/h2oshows. You can check out the full schedule (thus far) here. [image c/o Flickr]
UPDATE from our mailbag:
I have been told by a contact at Jelly that the slip n slide will be back. This is of particular interest to me, as my buddy and I have run the slip n’ slide for the past two summers. I’m excite for the new venue. Even less shade means even more slippers and sliders!
