Every Thursday, the North Broadway corridor transforms into a free outdoor gathering space where neighbors and visitors can enjoy live music, support local restaurants and bars, browse local vendors, connect with community organizations, and give back to important local causes.
This welcoming summer festival celebrates the vibrant spirit of Downtown Schenectady through music, food, drinks, small businesses, community programming, and charitable giving — bringing people together while supporting the neighborhoods, organizations, and voices that make the Electric City shine.
The event is family-friendly and designed for all ages. Parents can relax and enjoy the entertainment while kids — and kids at heart — explore the play area hosted by the Downtown Schenectady Improvement Corporation (DSIC).
