OBF is back in Harlem for a high-energy day of live string performances, DJs, and an open-air street marketplace. Tickets on sale now.

Join us in Harlem as we mark ten years of redefining live string performance. This full-day experience brings together extraordinary local and national, award-winning musicians spanning hip-hop, R&B, jazz, Latin, classical, fusion, and experimental sounds.

For this year’s edition, St. Nicholas Avenue becomes an open-air extension of the experience—featuring a curated marketplace of local vendors, small businesses, and community organizations, along with activities for all ages and DJ sets from some of NYC’s top mixers and sound artists.

Join us for a vibrant celebration of music, culture, and community.

All ticket proceeds directly support the musicians and creative teams who make this event possible.
