Welcome to Albany's website for Special Events, your entertainment guide for the Capital City of New York State.

From our nationally famous Tulip Festival in May to the lively Alive at Five concert series, we have something for everyone to enjoy throughout the year. Our location on the beautiful Hudson River is one of our greatest assets and the City is engaged in a waterfront redevelopment that will make Albany a major cultural and tourism destination in upstate New York. For this year, we have planned many great festivals on our beautifully developed riverfront.

We hope you will enjoy browsing through our events site and selecting a time to come visit with us. I guarantee a memorable and enjoyable experience.

Sincerely,

Gerald D. Jennings
