Forest Hills Stadium Launches Two New Wine Bars

FOREST HILLS, QUEENS — The Forest Hills Stadium is opening two new wine bars for 2019 summer concert attendees.

Forest Thrills and its sibling, Lil Thrills, will offer three types of wine and throwback games and activities in a divey setting, the stadium announced.

The Forest Thrills space served as a bar for performers and the stadium's grounds crew in the mid-1970s, according to a stadium spokesman, but it closed in 1979.

The bars' owner, No Fine Print Wine Co., is the brainchild of artist managers Pat Corcoran and Tim Smith. Corcoran, who manages Chance the Rapper, first visited the stadium during the musical artist's 2017 tour.

"Forest Hills is the perfect place for us to meet fans who love music and wine, without the snobbery that can come with both," Corcoran said. "We’re psyched for everyone to stop by and see us at Forest Thrills."

Smith, who manages such artists as Skrillex and Zedd, said he has worked with the stadium's team for years.

"We are proud to be building with them and really think people are going to dig our own little world within their world," he said.
