The Brooklynbretta Music Festival is an annual event started in 2006 by White Shoe Records, a Brooklyn-based independent music collective, and Brooklynbretta, New York City’s beloved scooter shop.
Set against the industrial backdrop of Park Slope, Brooklyn’s Sackett Street (between 3rd and 4th Avenues) this free music festival showcases the independent music collective of White Shoe Records, as well as other like-minded and emerging artists. The Brooklynbretta Music Festival brings together Brooklynbretta’s motor-scooter enthusiasts with the independent music loving community of New York City.
Please join us for our second year in Park Slope on Saturday, September 22, 2007

The easiest way to get here is to take the Manhattan Bridge to Brooklyn. As you exit the Manhattan Bridge you will be on Flatbush Ave. Keep going straight. When you get to 3rd Ave turn right on to Third Avenue. Go about 13 blocks on Third Ave and turn left onto Sackett St. We are located on the right side of the street about two-thirds of the way down the block. Click here for directions from other areas.
