The Kosciusko Bridge connects Brooklyn to Queens, underneath is a public park and community space. The first stage is located in a massive skatepark that transforms into the main stage. The second stage has an amazing view of the Manhattan skyline and is located in the main vending area. The third stage is in a small amphitheater along Newtown Creek.  

The best way to get to the K Bridge is through public transit on the MTA bus or subway. There is no parking at the venue or on streets nearby so the festival recommends not to plan on driving.
