FREE FEST: The Hops & Harvest Festival @ the Empire State Plaza
The inaugural Hops and Harvest Festival takes over the Empire State Plaza on Wednesday (September 19) featuring the best of fall in Upstate New York with activities like a pie-eating contest, craft beer, a hops demonstration, food vendors and, of course, plenty of live music.
The fest was originally slated to begin at 5pm, but organizers have pushed back the starting time to 7:30pm because of Yom Kippur. Here’s the complete UPDATED schedule of bands:
7:30pm: The Lonely Heartstring Band
8pm: Honeysuckle
8:30pm: The Infamous Stringdusters
