Tugboat Roundup
September 6th, 7th, 8th, 2019
The Tugboat Roundup is a gathering of tugboats and other vessels and a celebration of New York's rich maritime history and industry. The Tugboat Roundup typically features about thirty tugs and other vessels including working tugs, historic tugs, mini-tugs, and barges.
The event begins on Friday with a tugboat parade, a magnificent display as they round the bend into the Waterford Harbor. Tugs are open for tours on Saturday and Sunday.
In addition to showcasing the history and present day uses of the waterways, there’s something for everyone at the three-day event. Tugboat Roundup features Tug Talks, craft and food vendors, live music, kids’ activities, a farmers market, boat rides, a 5K race, and a spectacular fireworks show. The Tugboat Roundup is produced by the Town of Waterford and sponsored by New York State Marine Highway and other generous sponsors.
