International Pillow Fight Day NYC!

This location is shown only to members

New York City’s 7th annual, and the world’s 5th annual Pillow Fight Day!

Bunny edition! Pillows fly and bunnies ears soar as you converge for a giant urban pillow fight! Swing and whack as you evade pillow-wielding assailants wearing bunny ears and toting chocolate eggs. Bring a soft pillow and wait for the signal. Pillow fight!

Please follow these guidelines to ensure a safe and fun pillow fight for everybody:

 

+ Soft, feather-free pillows only!
+ Swing lightly, many people will be swinging at once.
+ Do not swing at people without pillows or with cameras.
+ Remove glasses beforehand!
+ Deposit pillows in donation boxes or take them with you.
+ Pajamas welcome.

Cleanup: Please eliminate your use of feathers. As the pillow fight grows in size, so does the mess. By participating, you are pledging to clean up twice the mess you made :)

This year, leftover pillows will be donated to homeless shelters in Brooklyn and the Bronx.
