Programming will take place throughout the venue, both indoors and outdoors, with international documentary screenings presented in partnership with the Bridgeport Film Fest, live music and dance performances on the outdoor stage, and headliner bands performing inside The Warehouse.
Family-friendly activities will include a kids’ passport experience, face painting, henna art, heritage chalk murals, and themed photo installations. Adults can also enjoy a dedicated 21+ tasting lounge featuring complimentary wine, beer, and spirit samples from local partners.
