Things to do outside of your visit to Letchworth State Park

Picnic in the Vineyard - an annual dinner served outside among the vines

Letchworth State Park is a magical place and a nature-lover's wonderland right in our backyard. Named the #1 state park to visit in the nation, it has lived up to its title and welcomes close to one million visitors each year. For those who want to explore outside the park, we have a few suggestions that may coincide with your visit:
Thursday Night Summer Concerts
June 06, 2019 - September 05, 2019
Beginning at 6:00 pm, enjoy free parking and free music on the lawn.  Deer Run Winery offers wine, wine slushies, beer and more for sale to wet your whistle and we are joined by two or more food vendors so you don't have to worry about dinner!  Bring a chair!

FLX West Dine & Drinks Fest!

A NY craft food and beverage tasting event held at Deer Run Winery under a huge high peak tent on the front lawn.  Featuring live music by Midlife Crisis, attendees will receive a keepsake logo wine tasting glass and admission to the tasting tent featuring 20 NY craft food and beverage producers.  Many will have their products for sale, so if you try something you love, you can buy it to take home with you!  
​Picnic in the Vineyard
Saturday August 24, 2019 6:30 pm 
Personally this is my very favorite event held at Deer Run!  This features dinner served by Partyman Catering outside in the vineyard and it is such a memorable and magical event, you do not want to miss this if your vacation dates correspond and line up with this event.
​
These are just a few fun things for you to do while visiting & enjoying our beautiful region!  Summertime fun abounds in Western New York as residents are serious about having fun and packing as much activity into the summer calendar as possible!  We hope to see you at one or more of our events listed above or feel free to stop by our tasting room for a wine sampling and take home some of the finest Finger Lakes wine around!
