Atlantic City is one of three cities participating in New Jersey’s first-ever “North 2 Shore” summer festival this June. The nearly month-long shindig includes three long weekends focused on Atlantic City (June 7-11), Asbury Park (June 14-18), and Newark (June 21-25).<\/p>\n

Announced Monday by New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy (D) and First Lady Tammy Murphy, the summer series is the governor’s vision to celebrate the Garden State and showcase some of what makes those three towns special.<\/p>\n

\n

It is far past time that we shine a light on all that sets our state apart,” Murphy declared. “It is time for New Jersey to gather with friends to celebrate, to let our hair down, and to showcase more creativity and talent that has been presented in one state in one month ever before.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Produced by the New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC), one of the nation’s largest theatrical venues, North 2 Shore will pack more than 100 events into the three weekends. From music concerts and stand-up comedy<\/a> to special film screenings and thought-provoking roundtables with community stakeholders, the summer series promises to offer something for everyone.<\/p>\n

“And because we can’t help ourselves, there will be more. Art, dance, food, sports, pop-up gatherings, surprise guests \u2026 the kind of fun that other states would never allow,” the North 2 Shore website teases.<\/p>\n
