Rivercity Fest: Bottomless beers, bands and local eats

POSTED: Thursday, October 4, 2012, 1:49 PM

This Saturday the Fishtown Neighbors Association and Parks and Rec are teaming up to host the fifth annual Rivercity Festival in Penn Treaty Park. There's a 5k run, loads of vendors, magicians, circus performers, a line up of local bands and plenty of food and beer to be had from 12 to 5 p.m.

A flat fee of $20 gets you access to the hospitality tent which translates to all you can drink brews from Philadelphia Brewing Company, Barry's Homebrew and soon to open brew pub St. Benjamin's Brewing. Fishtown favorite Soup Kitchen is cooking up chili for the event, Johnny Brenda's is providing dessert and food truck action is going to be provided by The Foo Truck and The Buttercream Cupcake Truck.
