During the weekend of June 14th and 15th, downtown Manhattan will have an Italian flair! Campari Spritz Square, a two-day cultural event, is set to transform the heart of Chinatown and the Lower East Side into an Italian-style hub. This celebration takes inspiration from the traditional Italian spritz cocktail, merging food, drinks, and design for a vibrant street party that encourages slow living—with a hint of bitterness.
As a gamer, I’d say: “171 E. Broadway is our meeting spot, where we can chill with spritzes and nibbles, feeling the vibrant Milanese evening vibe. However, this gathering isn’t just limited to one place! Cool local hangouts like Susan Alexandra, Coming Soon, and Colbo are jumping on board, setting up collaborative pop-ups that blend fashion, art, and music. Expect DJ sets, shopping experiences inspired by aperitivo, and exclusive offerings only found in our neighborhood!

This coming weekend provides an opportunity for a deeper exploration rather than just observing the Spritz on menus nationwide: it’s a chance to immerse yourself in the authentic aperitivo culture, not merely as a fad, but as a cherished ritual. The event combines tradition with innovation, incorporating the perspectives of local businesses and artists to create a unique interpretation of the traditional Italian practice.
As a enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share that reservations are now open for an extraordinary experience! You can secure your spot via Resy, but remember, seating is limited for adults aged 21 and above. From 3–7pm each day, you’ll find an array of engaging partner activities. Whether you’re a devoted spritz aficionado or seeking a fresh twist on your downtown weekends, this event promises to be a unique blend of refined tastes, enjoyable companionship, and impeccable timing that you won’t want to miss!
