Hampden

Baltimore has in recent years embraced certain aspects of Hampden's traditional culture. The neighborhood is home to the annual "Hon Festival" (also called HonFest and named after "Hon," a term of endearment used by Hampdenites and Baltimoreans generally), which features attendees who tease their hair into the enormous beehive hairdos of the 1960s. The festival also features a contest to find the best "Bawlmerese," Baltimore's unique accent. Don't miss The Avenue for some of Baltimore's best restaurants and bars.
