Underneath the sausage stands the feast is a saint's day, and this is the hour that remembers it. It is the quietest thing happening on Mulberry all weekend and the most genuinely local — a century of the same neighbourhood observance, with the street noise carrying in through the doors.
What to expect
A formal Mass during the feast's opening weekend, with the street fair continuing outside.
Good to know
- Mulberry Street between Canal and Houston is the main stretch
- Canal Street on the 6, N/Q/R/W or J/Z for the southern end; Spring Street on the 6 is quieter
- Free to attend — food and games are paid at the stall

Common questions
