Tips when traveling
Best time to visit
Each season in Syracuse offers something unique. Spring brings the St. Patrick's Day Parade and colorful gardens at Thornden Park. Summer is ideal for lake activities and outdoor dining in Armory Square. Fall offers harvest celebrations and apple picking at nearby orchards. Winter highlights include enjoying the accessible trails at Webster Pond and cheering on a Syracuse Orange basketball game at the JMA Wireless Dome.
Climate
Syracuse truly experiences four distinct seasons. Warm summers are perfect for boating on Oneida Lake, while autumn delivers crisp air and vibrant foliage across Highland Forest. Winters are snowy and invite cold-weather fun—explore the accessible boardwalk at Labrador Pond, the Tinker Falls trail, or both! Spring offers mild weather for exploring historic neighborhoods and farmers markets. Pack layers to enjoy the variety year-round.
Events
In addition to the New York State Blues Fest and Taste of Syracuse, the city hosts the Syracuse International Film Festival, showcasing global cinema, and the Great New York State Fair, one of the largest in the country. Holiday traditions like the Clinton Square Ice Rink and the Lights on the Lake display make winter especially festive.
