New York, NY (April 19, 2018) –
Five Points Festival, a designer toy, street, and alternative art
festival is excited to announce the return of the much-anticipated event
for 2018! Taking place the weekend of June 2-3rd, 2018
- at the awesome Brooklyn Expo Center, the festival will bring together
the shining stars of the Designer Toy, Kaiju & Sofubi, Craft Beer,
Food and alternative art worlds.
Featuring a dynamic lineup of counterculture artists and artisans from
around the world. The event is a 2-day celebration of toy designers and
customizers with an extensive international Neo-Kaiju and Sofubi
section, original street art, independent comic artists, gourmet food
trucks and craft beer presented by Clutter Magazine and sponsored by 50 Years of The Outer Spacemen, and Lagunitas Brewing Company.
Enthusiasts familiar with art toys will have the chance to meet some of
the world’s most iconic artists and brands like Huck Gee, Instinctoy,
Kidrobot, James Groman, Jason Freeny, Ron English, Super7, Tara
McPherson, and Mighty Jaxx on the show floor, where they will be
featured alongside artists from the U.S., Japan, Germany, Korea, the
U.K. and elsewhere, some showcasing in NYC for the first time, and all

mainstream art shows or comic cons will find something completely unique
at Five Points – a gathering of visual innovators, rebels, creators,
and the misfits that are driving the future of commercial &
counterculture art.
Tickets to Five Points also include access to a gathering of some of
NYC’s outstanding craft breweries and food trucks serving during all
regular Festival hours. VIP Ticket holders will gain special early
access privileges each day of the Festival, as well as entry to Friday night’s Designer Toy Awards, the world’s premier accolade for designer toy artists, and an all-around excellent party.
