Forbes plugs Basilica Hudson’s Soundscape and other Hudson Valley Festivals

Forbes Magazine is out with its recommendations for Hudson Valley Fall festivals and events, which are reachable by train from NYC. Basilica Hudson‘s cutting-edge, anti-festival, Soundscape, makes the list.

Take The Train To Seven Summer Events And Festivals In The Beautiful Hudson Valley, Near NYC

Forbes touches on lots of what you’d expect Forbes to cover. A Shakespeare Festival, the Dutchess County Fair and they even got a little edgy and plugged a Craft Beer Festival in Beacon. But bowing to the artistic (and economic) force that Soundscape and Basilica have become, Soundscape made the list as well.

Described by the venue as A Weekend of Music + Art, Soundscape will be held Friday, September 14 – Sunday, September 16 2018

More Info: here and here.

Early Bird tickets are now sold out. But you can still get tickets for the performances and/or the camping site, by the day or for the full weekend here.

If while you are in town for Soundscape you fall in love with Hudson (like I did), reach out by text. Let me show you how you can make Hudson your new home. Sometimes for less than you might pay for a NYC parking spot.

The Upstate Love Just Keeps Coming

Choose Your Own Hudson Valley Adventure

Sometimes it feels like our region and Hudson in particular, gets written up in the NY Times nearly once a week.

At least this article didn’t call us the new Brooklyn.

Some of the best antique and home spots in town got shout outs including Arenskjold Antiques, the Riverfront Antiques and Design Center in the former L&B Chair Factory Warehouse, Regan & Smith, Finch, Richard Kazarian and Neven + Neven Moderne along with Les Indiennes Outlet and Hawkins NY. 

This time the spotlight was courtesy of the Wall Street Journal.
