About this event

Spice up your March with a heaping helping of fun at the Bands and Beans – the biggest party in the North Country

Over 20 local restaurants will be throwing down their best chili concoctions and all vying for the coveted People’s Choice Award. The heat doesn’t stop there though! We’ve got nine of your favorite bands, on two stages, playing all day long. This event isn’t just a ton of fun, the proceeds from Bands ‘n Beans benefit the Lake George Arts Project’s free and open to all music and art programs like our year-round Courthouse Gallery exhibitions, our Summer Concert Series and our popular Jazz at the Lake, three-day, Jazz Festival.

Your ticket unlocks five hours of live music from 9 bands and chili from 25 local restaurants. It’s the best deal in town!
