The 39th Annual Brighton Jubilee will take place on Sunday, August 30 from 10am-6pm. The Jubilee is a multi-block festival that runs along Brighton Beach Avenue turning down Coney Island Avenue to the beach, attracting record crowds of over 125,000 every year. The Jubilee has become one of Brooklyn’s most popular summer events.

Enjoy blocks of bargains, international foods, rides and other fun for the kids, and a lot of giveaways.

There will be three stages featuring live entertainment, plus Pepsi Cola will be setting up a “Pepsi-Land,”with taste-testing and fun for everyone in the family — and all just a block from the famous Riegelman Boardwalk.
