Gusto! Italian Festival’ in Little Italy, Endicott (NY) is back on Aug. 25 for its 16th year. Little Italy Endicott Board President Michael Romeo said he is excited to bring Gusto! back to the community. Romeo said there are tons of activities for all ages and all the Italian food you can imagine, which he said is his favorite part.

”My favorite part is always the food,” Romeo said. “So many great food vendors, so many great options. Lamb spiedies, sausage sandwiches, pasta fagioli soup and cannolis.” He said he also enjoys the live music. Romeo explained Gusto! as a neighborhood block party. The streets will be shut down, live music will take place, George W. Johnson Park will be open for carousel rides and many activities for community members of all ages.
