The Queens United International Party [QUIP] is an annual, day-long celebration
of the cultures and music of the New York City borough of Queens.

As one of the nation's most diverse places (with over 120 countries represented
and 135 official languages spoken) Queens is “the world’s borough”.

Nowhere is this more evident than in its music, art and culture.

Established in 2017 at Sunnyside Gardens Park (Sunnyside, Queens) by a coalition of neighborhood residents,
QUIP has grown each year to feature more incredible music from around the world and around the corner.
