The Lake George Music Festival is a premier classical music artist retreat held annually in the picturesque town of Lake George, New York. Celebrating its 15th anniversary in 2025, the festival is scheduled from June 8 to 19, marking a shift from its traditional August dates to better accommodate visitors and reduce overcrowding.
Each summer, the festival transforms Lake George into a vibrant cultural destination, offering two weeks of world-class musical entertainment. The repertoire includes both traditional masterworks and contemporary compositions performed by a diverse roster of established professionals and emerging artists. Concerts are primarily held at the historic Carriage House at Fort William Henry, a beautifully renovated 19th-century venue that provides an intimate and acoustically rich setting for performances.
Lake George itself offers a stunning backdrop for the festival, with its crystal-clear waters and scenic mountain views. Visitors can enjoy the area's world-class shopping, dining, and recreational activities, making the festival not only a musical retreat but also a comprehensive cultural and vacation experience.
