27th Annual Saratoga Chowda Festival

Hello Folks, mark your calendar. Each year, the annual Saratoga Chowderfest attracts thousands of people to downtown Saratoga. Saratoga’s Annual Chowderfest is one of the area’s most highly anticipated events of the year. Family-friendly, fun and utterly delicious, Chowderfest features more than 80 vendors—including Saratoga County’s best restaurants and caterers—who open their doors to the public and serve 4 oz. samples of chowder to event goers.

Visitors can enjoy chowder samples and then vote for their favorites in a variety of categories. Chowderfest will also feature live entertainment and family-friendly activities all day long at participating venues and restaurants.

We can congregate at Whitman Brewing Company and plan our attack from there.

I will update once a list of participating vendors and restaurants has been finalized.

(I will verify regarding the shuttle service and update as needed)
Avoid the parking challenges and jump on the FREE shuttle running from the Saratoga Casino Hotel (Crescent Ave parking lot) to Congress Park. The 3 shuttles will run from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Also, remember the Saratoga Springs City Center parking garage holds over 600 vehicles! In previous years, the shuttles were school buses.

Optional

With our bellies full of delicious chowders, we should have plenty of energy for the next event, the Ice Bar held at the Mill, a short drive.

Bring your appetite, hat, earmuffs, mittens and good spirits and see you there!
