This event is held in collaboration with ROOST and the North Country Sports Council and features a range of artists which include local, regional, and touring acts. Genres covered during this event include blues rock, world music, country music, folk music, hip hop, funk, and psychedelic cumbia.
Music on the Green is an annual event held in Riverside Park, which is located in downtown Saranac Lake. It is an event that has become popular with residents and visitors because it includes many community activities for everybody. People are expected to come with chairs or blankets where they can enjoy some musical performance next to the Saranac River. In the event of rain, the performances will be moved to Hotel Saranac indoors.
