Pickle Day

about

Pickle Day is annual food festival that combines the best in Lower East Side restaurants and East coast picklers to recall the days past when merchants once lined Orchard Street for Sunday sales of dills and gherkins. The street fair attracts more than 30K visitors annually that's compromised of neighborhood residents, New Yorkers from the five-boroughs, and enthusiasts who travel great distances since it's conception more than 10 years ago. Pickle Day underwent this rebrand in 2016 to expand it's promotional outreach. Collateral included DOT/MTA subway advertising, lamp post banners, postcards, merchandise, and extensive digital advertising. In 2017, pickleday.nyc and video plug 'What's On Your Brine?" was added to the portfolio.
