Finger Lakes Events Calendar

Festivals, Happy Hour, Live Music, Theatre, and More!

It doesn’t matter what your interests are or who you’re in the Finger Lakes with, you can always find a great event to enrich your time in the region with those you care about. 

Events take place all year round in the Finger Lakes region. From lakeside (and on the lake) events in the summer to harvest activities in the fall, snowmobiling or snowshoeing in the winter, and festivals in the springtime! Step inside a glassmaker’s studio to blow your own glass, stroll Main Street on a food tour, or gather for live music and theater performances. Browse the list of Finger Lakes events below or search the specific dates you will be visiting to see everything going on in the region.

Great Events that Happen Every Year

Below, you will find dozens of great events happening throughout the year with many of them happening annually. If you have memories of favorite annual Finger Lakes events from childhood such as cardboard boat regattas, hot air balloon festivals, cheese, apple or pumpkin festivals, to name a few, it’s likely that event that still takes place or, has likely improved your enjoyment. If you see a special event that piques your interest but can’t make it, click on the event anyway, it might be coming back next year!

Events Added Daily

Make sure to check back frequently to see if any other great events have been added. Events are added daily by businesses from every sector and interest so if there is nothing that sparks your interest now, there very well could be soon!

Meditation & Singing Bowl Sound Bath Experience at Historic Mansion

The Singing Bowl Sound Bath Experience begins with each person lying down in a comfortable position or sitting comfortably in a chair. You are led through guided breath work to clear the mind.  For the remainder of your session, enjoy the sound of seven crystal singing bowls that bring you away from your thoughts and into a meditative state while on the beautiful grounds of Cobblestone Springs. The sound waves and vibrations produced by the crystal bowls surround and bathe your body, allowing for deep relaxation and healing. Relax, release and receive.  

Please bring any props you would like to support your comfort~ yoga mat, blanket, pillow, eye mask, anything else you like. Weather permitting, we will be outside amongst the beauty of Mother Nature. We will move inside if needed.

Tea and Vegan cookies to follow. Feel free to come early or stay after to explore the grounds, read and relax in our gazebos, or enjoy a rocking chair on the front porch.

Program fee of $15
