Infringement Festival Buffalo gets underway this Thursday! This powerhouse festival has become a beloved affair for countless Buffalonians.

As a matter of fact, my wife and I had our first date at this festival – watching fire dancing in Days Park to be exact. So the Infringement Festival has special meaning to me… and it should for you too. Why? Because this is the type of event that acts as cultural glue for the community. From marching bands to theatrical performances, this festival has it all. It’s a festival to buck the main stream heavy hitters – this festival was born of true grassroots grit. It’s a festival for the masses… and the loners. It can be powerful one minute, and subdued the next. The festival that encompasses parking lots, bars, and pocket parks… there are no limits, and there are no boundaries.

Did you know that the Infringement Festival has two slogans?

1) Infringe everyday

2) If you do it, infringe it

If you think about those slogans, they really do sum up so much. When our lives get too out of control… infringe. When our lives become too mundane… infringe. It’s all about releasing our artistic energies, and sharing colorful moments with others.

This year’s super creative Infringement Festival poster was created by Jonathan Wooley.

“We were absolutely tickled by the diversity and inclusion represented in this poster. So many cute little characters that embody the joyful, creative spirit of Infringement.” – Infringement Team

There’s also a special mention by the Infringement Team about The Broadway Market event – on Saturday, August 3, Infringers will be taking over The Market from 12pm to 5pm. The event will take place on all three floors – in the lobby, in the parking garage, and on the roof. Click here to learn all about it.
