Set on a strip of College Street, buzzy Little Italy's main draw is its classic pizzerias, trattorias and gelato shops, as well as its international restaurants and produce markets. Sleek martini bars, trendy pubs, and concerts at the famous Mod Club round out the area's nightlife, which mostly attracts students and hipsters. In summer, locals and visitors flock to outdoor patios lined with casual cafes.

"This weekend-long pedestrian Italian food festival is held every June. The festival spans across College Street, the heart of Little Italy, which is closed to vehicle traffic throughout the event. Local Italian restaurants set up food tents and trucks so that pedestrians can sample a variety of dishes, including wood-fired pizza and, of course, delicious arancini. Food isn’t the only thing you’ll load up on at this event, however. Live music and carnival rides offer entertainment, and street vendors offer the opportunity to do some shopping. In the evenings, the street festival becomes a hot spot for nightlife, but be sure to go early as the bars fill up fast.When: Second weekend of June" - MATADOR_NETWORK
