FOLKATHON! - Saturday Evening
Caffe Lena
Saratoga Springs, NY
Share this event:


After years of hard work the time for a major renovation of Caffe Lena's historic home is at hand! We have designated the last weekend of April for a giant-size farewell to the "old" Caffe, and a celebration of the spirited community that will sustain the revitalized Lena into the coming decades.

We have invited dozens of our top headliners to come play one last time in the old Caffe. Yes, we're reviving the FOLKATHON!--a great tradition at Lena's through the '90s. The festivities start at 6 PM on Friday evening and, with a couple modest breaks tucked into the early morning hours, will go virtually non-stop until Sunday evening at 10 PM.

Come for the whole weekend, or for one day, or even for one show--but do not miss this once-in-a-lifetime occasion!

Single show tickets will be available at the door for $10.
