Toast the End of Summer With a Fiesta at the Viaduct Rail Park

We all know that Labor Day weekend is the unofficial end of the season. But the second-last weekend of summer is still deep in day-drinking, fun-having balmy weather mode, as far as we’re concerned.

And Ela chef-owner Jason Chichonski is here to help you squeeze that last bit of sunny, carefree fun out of August with his End of Summer Fiesta at the Viaduct Rail Park on Sunday, August 27th.

Chichonski — who took care of the food for last year’s PHS pop-up beer garden at the Rail Park along with Maison 208 chef-owner Sylva Senat — is serving up his spin on guac, tacos, and churros. Drinks include large-format bottled cocktails, craft beer, and wine, plus fresh fruit sno-cones that can be spiked with your choice of spirits. There will be games like corn hole and Battleship beer pong, too, with music from DJ Get Up.

The party goes down at 10th and Hamilton Streets from 11 a.m. until 7 p.m. It’s free and open to the public, and food and drink are cash only. Check out the full menu below.
