Get ready for fun in Saratoga Springs this summer. Fun is served “As You Wish!” We’re heating things up with Summer Monday Fundays each week from June 2 to Aug. 11 and Saratoga Splash Days from June 11-14.
We kicked things off in style with our annual favorite “Chalk, Walk & Boogie” at Neptune Park on Monday. Residents took part in the sidewalk chalk contest, enjoyed the local talent of the Saratoga Community Orchestra and grabbed some delicious dinner from the food trucks. And that was just the beginning!
Each Monday, this summer will include food trucks, entertainment and more. The Farmers Market runs June 16 through Labor Day in conjunction with Monday Fundays! Other highlights will include a Salute to America with a patriotic concert and fireworks on June 30 and our End of Summer luau on Aug. 11. See the full entertainment lineup on our website.
Saratoga Splash Days is always a highlight of the summer! Kicking off Wednesday with our kids’ Splash Bash water party, Teen Chalk War and family night at the carnival, the fun is just getting started. The carnival will be open Wednesday through Saturday. Presale vouchers are on sale online till noon Wednesday.
Thursday is the opening day for our boutique as well as the day for our Picnic in the Park and movie night. Join the adventure that evening at the Pirate and Princess Faire where you’ll be able to watch live jousting performances, climb through a pirate ship, scale The Cliffs of Insanity and do free crafts and activities. This all leads up to viewing “The Princess Bride” on the big screen at dusk. Get your costumes ready for the contest, too!

The fun will continue Friday evening with our high-energy concert featuring The Salamanders. Visit the boutique, carnival and activities before the show and stick around after the concert for a drone show produced by Open Sky Productions. This is a party you won’t want to miss!
Saturday starts off with the Grand Parade along the Mountain View Corridor at 1200 North and 400 North to Thunder Boulevard. Bring your family and friends and find your spot before the 10 a.m. start. Following the parade, Neptune Park will be packed with fun all day. Check out the boutique, car show, live entertainment, food trucks and carnival. Residents will show off their pickleball skills at the Pickleball Tournament at Patriot Park on Saturday night followed by fireworks launching from Patriot Park around 10 p.m.
