St. Ann's Italian Festival In Hoboken Announces Dates For Summer

HOBOKEN, NJ — If you've been looking forward to one of Hoboken's most iconic events, you can now save the dates.

The St. Ann's Italian Festival, otherwise known as the Feast of St. Ann, recently updated their social media pages to reflect that the 116th annual festival has been scheduled.

The nightly festival will run July 22, a Wednesday, through that Sunday, the organizers said.

The St. Ann's Feast began in July 1910, when Hoboken's immigrants from San Giacomo, a province of Salerno, Italy, wanted to preserve their heritage.

St. Ann, the mother of Mary and the grandmother of Jesus, is the patron saint of mothers, of women who are trying to get pregnant, and more.

The festival features live music, a beer garden, rides, games of chance, and other food, including their famous fried zeppoles.
