About this event

The House, Garden, & History Tour offers history, garden, and architecture lovers a glimpse into Albany’s historic neighborhoods. This self-guided tour brings the neighborhood to life as homeowners open their doors and garden gates to the public. While you’re walking, pay attention to Spotlights on History, new for 2026, highlighting locations where women fought for the right to vote and where newly enfranchised women organized. Tickets are required for the Tour.

On the same day, take a leisurely stroll through Center Square, Hudson/Park, and Washington Park to experience the Stoop Stroll. Residents transform their stoops into one-of-a-kind displays that reflect each household’s personality. Vote for your favorites in the friendly neighborhood competition. Top stoops and blocks win prizes! Stroll registration is optional.

Tickets for the House, Garden, & History tour are $25 per person ($30 after June 14). The Stoop Stoll has a suggested donation of $10 per person. Use the link above to buy tickets for all events. Note that all events occur rain or shine.All contributions are nonrefundable. We hope to see you at the Tour and Stroll!
