""When we set up Public Service... it feels like you're just activating something that's here under the surface all the time.""
""Each one, each year, gets better and better," says Public Service cofounder Cesar Toribio. "It's just [promoted] on our Instagram, and then it's word of mouth. Because it's such a genuine, real thing, people come back and they're like, I felt something so incredible that I have to come back and I gotta bring someone else.""
Public Service is an outdoor daytime dance party that has become a staple of Brooklyn summers, roving to parks like Classon Playground, Maria Hernandez Park and Herbert Von King's amphitheater. The events feature Afro-house, salsa, disco and R&B blasting from bright pink speakers, creating a jubilant atmosphere felt physically and socially. The parties are free, open to everyone, and curated by nightlife veterans who emphasize both music and community. Promotion relies largely on Instagram and word of mouth, producing a multigenerational crowd of toddlers, baristas, neighborhood OGs and others. The final party of the season is scheduled for Sunday, September 14 at Von King.
