PROGRAMS
Annual Gala
The Flushing BID's annual Gala celebrates the progress downtown Flushing has made over the past year with a night of performances, dining, socializing, entertainment and future plans for downtown Flushing to flourish.
Banner Programs
At the request of our members, the BID created a banner program to encourage business activity in the district. The BID installs 3' x 8' sized banners made of a heavy duty material onto lamp posts. Sponsorship is open to all members of the BID as well as the local community. The banner program also helps bring in additional resources to the BID.
Flushing Food Tour
A food tour unlike any other, the Flushing Food Tour takes guests on a journey through a carefully curated list of Downtown Flushing’s exotic cuisines and lets them sample a taste of what they have to offer. Each Food Tour date has limited spots, which offers the chance for participants to interact and socialize with fellow food enthusiasts.
Holiday Lighting
Every winter, the Flushing BID hangs LED snowflakes and hosts a Holiday Lighting Ceremony. The Holiday Lighting Ceremony has become a major community event where we kick off the holiday shopping season at Macy's with elected officials, Flushing BID board Directors, and community leaders. Afterwards, guests are invited to a Holiday Lighting Party to enjoy a delicious dinner together.
Street Festival
The Flushing BID organizes a street festival near the end of summer every year. This festival takes place on 40th Road and Prince Street. Participants will include exhibitors covering food, entertainment, health and educational awareness. There will be plenty of exciting activities including face painting, dance and street art performance, Chinese arts and crafts, and music. Everyone is welcome to join and enjoy the games, foods, and spectacular performances.
