Social Distancing Ignored at Illegal Rave Under New York City's Kosciuszko Bridge
As New York City bars and nightclubs remain closed due to the impact of COVID-19, an illegal rave took place under Brooklyn's Kosciuszko Bridge last Saturday, August 1st, 2020.
According to a report published in the New York Post, several people wore masks, including the DJ. However, footage circulating on social media paints a different picture, as hundreds of revelers are seen partying with a disregard for social distancing guidelines.
An Instagram user shared footage of the illicit rave, which you can watch below.
The news arrives after "Safe & Sound," a widely panned electronic music show in the Hamptons headlined by The Chainsmokers that devolved into a full-blown concert devoid of social distancing despite being promoted as a drive-in event.
