HANCOCK, NY — Hancock will celebrate its official kickoff to summer this year with a Blues Brews & BBQ Festival at the Town Square on Memorial Day Weekend, May 26 and 27. The event hosts two full days of live blues with five incredible bands: The Parlor Cats, Friar’s Point Band and Dave Keyes Band on Saturday. Shane Scarazzini and Eight Fingers rock the block Saturday night, and Slam Allen brings it home on Sunday afternoon.
More than 30 vendors will participate in the two-day event, with everything from homegrown produce, honey and New York Maple Syrup to handmade pottery, jewelry, fiber arts, home decor and food. All day Saturday and Sunday, you’ll have your choice of chicken spiedies, sausage and peppers, hamburgers and hotdogs, walking tacos, strawberry shortcake, ice cream sandwiches and baked goods galore. On Saturday night, the Misfit Pit serves up a barbeque with slow-smoked brisket, pulled pork and more. Roscoe Beer Company will be there Saturday night with some amazing local craft beers. And on Sunday, picnic on The Square with chicken barbeque.
This event is made possible through the generosity of the O’Connor Foundation, Tompkins Bluestone and Millennium Pipeline and with the support of the Hancock Gateway Tourism Council. Visit destinationhancock.com/events/ for a full schedule of activities, performance times, and full list of vendors.
