Albany has a four-season climate that highlights the best of each time of year. Winters are cold and snowy—ideal for bundled-up museum days and scenic frosty strolls. Spring and fall are cool and colorful, perfect for exploring parks or rail trails. Summers are warm and sunny, great for outdoor festivals and walks along the Hudson River.
Albany’s calendar is packed with personality. In spring, the Tulip Festival fills Washington Park with vibrant color and Dutch tradition. Summer brings the family-friendly Altamont Fair, while fall celebrates spooky charm with Halloween festivities. With year-round happenings across the Empire State Plaza and local neighborhoods, there’s always something worth celebrating.
Explore the architectural beauty of the New York State Capitol, unwind in the gardens of Washington Park, and take in sweeping views at Thacher State Park. Stroll or cycle the Albany County Rail Trail, dive into local culture at the NYS Museum and Albany Institute, and wander the rare Albany Pine Bush Preserve. And don’t miss a classic cider donut to savor the local flavor!
