Did You Attend The Great GoogaMooga Festival in Brooklyn?

This past weekend, New Yorkers relished the opportunity to take in the best the city has to offer in music, food and drinks at the annual Great GoogaMooga festival in Brooklyn. Despite a rainy backdrop, thousands of adults packed Prospect Park to listen to the likes of Matt & Kim and The Flaming Lips while eating from New York’s top restaurants and sipping on some of the best cocktails NYC’s top mixologists have to offer.

Presented by the folks who brought you Bonnaroo, Outside Lands and other major festivals, and served up with Brooklyn “indie” spirit, Great GoogaMooga was a celebration of all that’s good to eat, drink, experience and share in America’s food capital.
