the Atlantic Antic 2024, one of Brooklyn’s largest and most diverse street festivals. Held along the iconic Atlantic Avenue, this year’s festival was a celebration of culture, cuisine, community, and live entertainment. From dynamic circus performances by the Bindlestiff Family Cirkus to the rhythmic energy of the Batala New York drumming group, the festival offered something for everyone. The gallery captures the excitement of street performers, local vendors, food stalls, and enthusiastic festival-goers enjoying the lively atmosphere despite the occasional drizzle.
Featured in the gallery are images of colorful food stalls serving diverse cuisines, including grilled sausages by Jens Wohld Catering, vibrant street foods like jerk chicken and paella, and interactive booths showcasing the talents of local artists and craftsmen. The gallery also highlights unique moments like dogs in raincoats, youth basketball activities, and children enjoying pony rides in the designated Kid Zone.
The festive spirit of Atlantic Antic is best seen through the eyes of performers and vendors who bring this event to life. The Bindlestiff Family Cirkus performers, dressed in vivid costumes and delivering stunning juggling and diabolo acts, add a burst of color and energy to the gallery. Meanwhile, the Batala New York drummers, with their powerful beats and matching outfits, capture the essence of community engagement and musical celebration.
