The 32nd Watkins Glen Waterfront Festival drew large crowds Saturday as 40 handmade cardboard boats raced through Seneca Harbor Park’s marina. Spectators lined the waterfront to cheer on the colorful creations during the beloved Cardboard Boat Regatta.
Vendors filled the area with food, crafts, and nonprofit booths, while live music near Lucky Hare Bar & Grill kept spirits high. Guests also enjoyed mingling with boat crews beforehand at the “Concourse de Cardboard.”
Thankfully, the usual rain held off, making for a festive and dry day at the harbor.
