In 2021 Five Points Fest was 100% virtual thanks to our partnership with NTWRK (https://thentwrk.com/), and it was a huge success! For 2022 we are excited to bring both audiences together with our NTWRK stage LIVE IN FROM NEW YORK!

Here we will be able to bring vendors from the show floor directly to attendees who can’t make it to the event via the NTWRK APP! Not only that, we will be transporting vendors who can’t attend the festival live to the floor and beyond!

If you are a vendor who would like to take part please get in touch or complete this form!

Get ready to go big or go home!

We are excited to reveal that the 2022 poster art has been created by the amazing Philipenese-based artist Creon! With a new twist on our iconic Octopus, he knocked it out of the park! Make sure to follow him on Instagram!

Hello, Five Points Family!

Thank you for being so patient. We know you have been eager to hear from us with an update on the 2022 event, and we are sure you have noticed some changes to the planned Festival this year, so we wanted to reach out and give you the latest info.

Unfortunately, our amazing venue, the Brooklyn Expo Center, has closed down due to the pandemic. We have worked very hard to find a new venue in Brooklyn that can accommodate all of the fun things that Five Points Fest stands for and we are super excited to have found an amazing space that we know you will love!

The new dates are June 25th and 26th, at Zero Space in Brooklyn. (https://www.zerospace.co/studios/venue/)

We are so sorry you have been left in the dark while we scoped out new possibilities. We love throwing these events and have missed all of you so much!. We are finalizing details with the venue and checking in with Vendors to finalize Five Points Fest 2022… those vendors are having issues getting products this year, so all of that is being taken into consideration.

If you have purchased tickets and cannot attend our new posted dates, we are happy to honor them for next year and hope you will be able to attend!

As an independent festival, we put on these events as an opportunity for the community to come together and celebrate this amazing industry that we all love and cherish. We have been working so hard to bring you an amazing event, even with so many variables out of our control.

We will have more updates next week as we meet with the venue and some of our outside vendors. Thank you so much for your patience and understanding during this crazy time. If you have any questions please reach out to us via email at [email protected], any messages to our social media platforms will not be answered. 

Stay safe and healthy, and love each other.

Keep Rockin

Five Points Fest!
