  • Polish-American Arts Festival. The Polish-American Arts Festival has been held annually since 1979 at Cheektowaga Town Park to honor Casimir Pulaski, the Polish nobleman and mercenary who played a pivotal role in the American Revolution. Aside from the General Pulaski Parade down Harlem Road that kicks off the festivities each year, the Polish-American Arts Festival offers polka dancing, food and drink, and live music over three days in mid-July. 
  • 1 Sky Zone Buffalo. 

Buy

  • 1 Walden Galleria, Walden Avenue (10 minutes from downtown Buffalo via the Kensington Expressway and/or Interstate 90), ☏ +1 716 681-7600. M-Sa 10AM-9:30PM, Su 11AM-6PM. The region's largest mall has over 200 stores and services. Walden Galleria (Q7961467) on Wikidata Walden Galleria on Wikipedia (updated Feb 2020)
  • There are also plenty of other big-box department stores and plazas along Union Rd. and Walden Ave. in the general vicinity of the Galleria.

Eat

  • 1 Taqueria Los Mayas, 3525 Genesee St., ☏ +1 716 906-3730. M-Th 11AM-9PM, F Sa 11AM-9:30PM. From the looks of it, tucked between an auto body shop and a tired-looking suburban strip mall out by the airport, you'd never peg this as the place where locals flock to enjoy the best Mexican food on the Niagara Frontier. But appearances are deceiving at Los Mayas — and the word "flock" is apropos too; rare is the time when there's not a long wait for a table. Tacos come on house-made corn tortillas with a variety of fillings from the familiar (ground beef, chicken, al pastor) to the more esoteric (cactus leaf and potato; chorizo with buche, i.e. beef chitterlings), with a full toppings bar to visit once you've been served; the balance of the menu consists of familiar Tex-Mex standbys enhanced with an extra zing of authenticity. Service is friendly, but slow and rather inattentive. $15-40. (updated Sep 2019)
