Now in its third year, the Northside Festival features four days of indie music followed by four days of films, along with a two-day conference that examines the future of technology and business. Greenpoint and Williamsburg will be more alive than usual with the sounds of bands filling the streets and clubs June 13-16. Eighty-dollar badges are still available for the music events, or you can get individual tickets to the shows, which will be held at such locations as Union Pool, the Glasslands, the Trash Bar, the Gutter, Bar Matchless, Europa, Saint Vitus, Cameo, the Music Hall of Williamsburg, and many more. In addition, more than thirty films will be screened at Nitehawk Cinema, Williamsburg Cinemas, Videology, UnionDocs, and other locations.
