The Complex Family Style Food Festival will return to New York on Saturday, July 11. This year\u2019s festival will feature over 30 restaurants and streetwear collaborations at Pier 36 on the Lower East Side.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The festival is open to all ages and will run from noon to 8 p.m. at 299 South St. A press release described the event as a one-of-a-kind celebration of food, fashion and community, with exclusive dishes and clothing sold only at the festival.<\/p>\n

Miles Canares started the festival in Los Angeles, CA, in 2019 alongside Bobby Kim and Ben Shenassafar from streetwear brand The Hundreds. The 2026 festival will be the second time the festival has been in New York, following last year\u2019s event at Industry City<\/a> in Brooklyn.<\/p>\n
