Ahh, there is something about listening to live music, smelling fresh hot dogs, and sipping a cool beer on a warm summer night that evokes nostalgia for past summers. Nothing creates great summer memories like a good old-fashioned street festival! This is the time when the Tri-Cities come alive with an array of fun summer events. Each of the towns also has hidden gems such as car shows and summer concert series that run all summer long. From art festivals to river concerts, Batavia residents will have no shortage of activities to fill their summer calendar.

From an international windmill trade show to favorite festivals it’s going to be an exciting summer in Batavia.
