"I'm excited to partner back with the amazing team at the Buzz Brand Group. This will be the first-time full production is handled by an outside firm. When the decision came to centralize the production to one unit and after exploring other event firms, we knew they were the one. Glad to collaborate with a team that not cares about the work we do but is also minority owned."
"Having worked with the festival for six seasons in the past, Buzz is honored to be asked to return. Not only is the festival a labor of love on a personal note but also it is an amazing cultural phenomenon that is truly needed in the marketplace. We look forward to producing an amazing event with Calixto and the NYLFF team",
