Description

The Tugboat Roundup is a three-day gathering and celebration of tugboats and other vessels working on New York's historic waterways and beyond. The Tugboat Roundup typically features about thirty tugs and other vessels including working tugs, historic tugs, mini-tugs, and barges. Over eighty vessels have participated since the festival began in 1999.  The festival takes place in Waterford, NY at the confluence of the Hudson and Mohawk Rivers, and the Erie and Champlain Canals.

Tugboat Roundup begins with a tugboat parade up the Hudson River, includes live music all weekend, tours on moored tugs, tour boat rides, kids' activities, presentations, demonstrations, contests, and more.
