Broccoli City Festival Returns

[ 0 ] April 23, 2019 | Johnna

Broccoli City Festival is this weekend and we could not be happier to welcome back the annual spring festival. Of course we are excited about the food but this year the festival has upped the ante by continuing to add some of the world’s top influencers and artists. Bozoma Saint John, Coach K and Rob Hill are just some of the names and faces to look forward to this weekend at Broccolicon, a strategically curated program of 50+ workshops, panels, chats, demonstrations, and networking events. Kith and Kin and the Broccoli Bar (in collaboration with &Pizza), will be two of the top food names to look for as Broccoli City takes over FedExField.

I like this festival. I like it for more reasons than one. JKGF recommendation: Definitely an event you should check out in the DMV if you make it here during the Spring. There is a little something for everyone between the food, wellness and entertainment. We will be there to dibble and dabble in a little bit everything, Broccoli City style.
