“For the health and safety of our guests, vendors, and board members it was essential to come to this decision,” officials said.

The Italian Festival is one of the festivals Buffalonians look forward to the most, so this is incredibly sad. It joins the laundry list of other events and festivals postponed and canceled this summer.
