Cabin Fever Festival
Feeling cooped up during the winter months? Our Cabin Fever Festival is a great way to get the whole family out of the house! This annual Event has food, raffles, music and activities for kids of all ages. Local children’s programs and businesses as well as camps (both local and from outside of Hoboken) provide entertainment and activities for your children to participate in. Don't forget HFA Cabin Fever is the largest local event for summer camps and after-school programming under one roof! Need help selecting your summer camps and after-school activities for your children? Join us at HFA Cabin Fever!
Mutzfest
The HFA Mutzfest is a popular face-off between local delis for bragging rights about who really has the best “mutz.” In past years, M&P Biancamano, Fran's Deli, Gigi's Rosticeria, Littletown, NJ, Losurdo Brothers Deli and Vito's Deli have competed in for our People's Choice and Critic's Choice awards! In addition to the mozzarella competition, this exciting Event has also included live entertainment, a cannoli-eating contest, Frank Sinatra karaoke and more.
