Meatball Street Brawl

Join us for the third annual Meatball Street Brawl on September 9 at Osteria 166. We are shutting down Mohawk St. and inviting 20 of the best meatball purveyors in town to put their meatballs where your mouth is. Ok, that's weird. But you get our point.

The game will be on a large screen. The meatballs will be many. There will be beer and wine and bread and antacid. Proceeds go to local charities and you get a chance to tailgate for a road game.

Hope to see you here. Come hungry.

Since its arrival onto the festival scene, Meatball Street Brawl has managed to raise $30,000 for local charities. In 2018, proceeds from the event will benefit the Make A Wish Foundation, Meals on Wheels Foundation of Western New York, and the Michael Donald Perry Fund at the Response to Love Center. The festival committee has also set out to establish opportunities for students who want to advance themselves in the culinary field. They have done this by creating a Hospitality Scholarship Fund for the New York State Restaurant Association Educational Foundation.

Now, it’s time to do some serious meatball tasting, beer and wine drinking, cupcake eating, and football viewing – the Bills vs Ravens season opener game will be shown on a big screen at the festival!

Meatball Street Brawl III will take place on West Mohawk Street between Delaware and Franklin, starting at 11:30 a.m. on Sunday, September 9, 2018.

Tickets for Meatball Street Brawl III are available for $15 pre-sale or $20 on the day of the event. Pre-sale tickets can be purchased at any of the participating restaurants or online at meatballstreetbrawl.com.
