The Family Style Food Festival is coming to Brooklyn next month, and—as should be expected by now—it will indeed feature another stacked lineup. Fittingly, to signal that the Brooklyn-set fest was on the horizon, Complex recruited Nicolas Heller, a.k.a. @newyorknico, to direct a special announcement video. The 2025 NYC edition of Family Style will be hosted by none other than food influencer Keith Lee while Angelo Baque of Awake NY is the artistic director for the festival.
To ensure you can plan accordingly, we’ve assembled a quick guide on what you need to know. Keep reading for more.
When is Family Style Food Festival coming to New York City?
In a trailer directed by Nicolas Heller, we’ve been treated to some more details of the festival ahead of its May 17 date at Industry City in Brooklyn.
Presented by Complex, the latest incarnation of the food-meets-streetwear festival follows the New Orleans edition during Super Bowl LIX weekend in February. Later this year, the festival will also take place in Los Angeles (September 13) and Las Vegas (October 25-26).
For an idea of what to expect based on past iterations, check out the video below showing a small selection of what was available during the Family Style Food Fest that went down amid ComplexCon Hong Kong festivities.
