This Week’s Events in the Kingston Area
Situated in the Hudson Valley, near the Catskills, and just a short trip up the New York State Thruway from the New York metropolitan area, Kingston, NY is a perfect destination for a wide range of outdoor activities – and also a home for a rich diversity of festivals, music, and the arts. Sightseeing, and exploring museums and historical sites, should also be on the agenda or anyone visiting the area.
We maintain a planning calendar to facilitate the coordination of major events and we encourage event managers to post their events here: https://kingstonhappenings.org/community-event-planning-calendar/
