Festa di Santa Rosalia starts out strong
It’s the most wonderful time of the year – or at least the summer – in Bensonhurst.
The Festa di Santa Rosalia, commonly called the 18th Avenue Feast, began without a hitch despite a last-minute date change as it celebrated its first few days on the commercial strip.
The 11-day festival kicked off on Thursday, August 21, and will continue through Sunday, August 31, bringing Bensonhurst together and drawing crowds in the thousands, many of whom have been coming to the Festa di Santa Rosalia for years.
