Viva la Comida! is a festival highlighting the cultural diversity of Queens, combining food with music, art, dancing, entertainment and more on a street known for its outpouring of vibrancy.
With local food vendors, an art exhibition, an open market atmosphere, and dancing amid live music, Viva La Comida is a pure celebration of what makes this diverse community the heart of the city.

We achieve this through a range of local economic development programs, including neighborhood marketing, special events, placemaking, streetscape beautification, supplemental sanitation, and advocacy.
