Come join the Beacon Sloop Club’s Annual Corn Festival on Sunday, August 16, 2026, from 12:00 PM to 5:00 PM at Pete and Toshi Seeger Riverfront Park in Beacon, New York! This lively, family-friendly event celebrates the summer harvest along the beautiful shores of the Hudson River.
Savor the local Hudson Valley corn, boiled fresh and topped with butter or your favorite toppings. Enjoy traditional and Mexican-style street corn, available throughout the day. At noon, head to the main tent to sign up for free afternoon sails on the Hudson River aboard the volunteer-run boat, the Woody Guthrie.
Experience nonstop live music all day on two solar-powered stages, including a special performance area with fun activities for kids. Delicious seasonal treats like chilled watermelon, freshly squeezed lemonade, and hot chili will keep everyone energized. Plus, explore vendor booths featuring local craft makers, food trucks, and environmental nonprofits with educational displays on river history.
