The San Gennaro Feast comes back to town September 18th- 22nd, once again held at the M Resort and Casino. The festival features a wide variety of ethnic food vendors, arts and crafts, home exhibits, pony rides & petting zoo, face painters, live international acts hourly on the main concert stage, plus amusement rides and games fun for the whole family!
I’ve been to this feast many times over the years and it’s your traditional fair atmosphere. So much good food, it’s hard to choose what to eat, and then you must leave room for desserts. Classics like cheese on a stick, deep fried oreos and food from many ethnicities and cultures.
Expect a crowd, as we don’t have too many fairs and festivals throughout the year here in Vegas. If you go during off hours it should be less crowded, typical Friday and Saturday nights and daytime on the weekend are usually busy.

Is festival only free entry on Wednesday??
I don’t believe it’s free entry, their website says free parent wristband when you purchase child’s wristband- on opening night only. That’s a $25 savings.
