Beyond introducing you to some delicious new grub, the fair will also host live music and free tours about the market’s past and its future in the upcoming Essex Crossing. The event is free to attend, and most food will be $5 or less. -Eva Kis

While Justin Sayre — the take-no-prisoners emcee of “The Meeting of the International Order of Sodomites”— can usually be counted on to lampoon the great ladies of the stage, from Barbara Streisand to Beyonce, he’ll be switching it up for his final performance of the season with an ode to Prince. You never know who might drop by this naughty, bawdy cabaret that calls out all the shame-free peculiarities of the modern LGBT community; past guests have included artists from Lea DeLaria to Christian Campbell.
