‘Tis that time of year again! With the holiday season in full swing, there are many events and activities planned all around Jersey City. Here's a list of events going on from now until the New Year.

This weekend, the West Hudson Arts and Theater Company will present a live stage adaptation of the 1983 classic holiday film, A Christmas Story. Performances will be held on Friday night at 7:30pm, and on Saturday at 2pm and 7pm.

The Blues People International Festival has returned to Newark, New Jersey for a second annual weeklong celebration of jazz, funk, salsa, and gospel music. The festival is free to the public and aims to celebrate music representative of and developed by people of African descent.

The same folks who brought you the Harborside Craft Brew Fest are at it again, this time with a change in libation. The team has just announced the first ever Jersey City Wine Fest. Use our promo code inside for discounted tickets.

Last Thursday, The Jersey City Summit for Real Estate Investment took over 70 Hudson Street for what has undoubtedly become the region's premier real estate event. An expected turnout of 500 swelled to over 750 as excitement for the event ramped up in the final weeks.

This Halloween, Jersey City will experience a gala like none other. Presented by The Costume Fairies, Spectral Gala will transform a 129-year-old cathedral into a "beautifully creepy, creepily beautiful" Halloween ball.

Transformed. Revitalized. Gentrified. These and other adjectives have often been used to describe what’s been happening in Hoboken and Jersey City over the last two decades. But increased luxury development can also bring with it some concerns. One of those worries is how communities can still care for those less fortunate in an economic boom that tends to hide the presence of poverty. That’s where HOPES CAP comes in.

This past Friday, The Shuster Group along with the Powerhouse Arts District Neighborhood Association held a booming block party for the Powerhouse neighborhood. During the event, Mayor Fulop launched GM's 'Maven' electric car sharing program.

Two events are planned this weekend that will celebrate downtown Jersey City’s Italian heritage. The Village neighborhood in Downtown Jersey City was previously called “Italian Village” after its large Italian population. This weekend, residents can explore that history with an Italian themed parade and historic walking tour of the neighborhood.

Next Saturday, October 15th will be the first ever Harborside Craft Brew Fest. Take in the magnificent New York City skyline in all its glory while enjoying over 150 styles of craft beer, delicious food, and great music. Prices increase next week so get your tickets now.
