Returning to The Pines: A Sterling Stage Ameribeat Festival Preview

Three festival weekends each summer, Sterling Stage Kampitheater (‘The Pines’) returns to Sterling, NY for 4 days and nights of music, dancing and art. This year’s Sterling Stage Folkfest 2017 has passed, however, Sterling Stage Ameribeat 2017 is right around the bend.

Sterling Stage Ameribeat will send off on Thursday, July 13 and patrons will return home the morning of Monday, July 18. For anyone with their calendars out, Sterling Stage Last Daze 2017 will take place August 31 through September 3.
