Saratoga Springs Downtown Business Alliance's Window Decorating Contest - June 2nd @ 11:00AM
Join us in celebrating the incredible display of creativity and community spirit from the recent Saratoga Springs Downtown Business Alliance Window Decorating Contest!
This year's theme for 2026, 'A Saratoga Summer' honors everything that Saratoga has to offer throughout the summer season. From the race track, SPAC's 60th Anniversary, the Arts, our bustling restaurants, bountiful boutiques, farmers markets, our parks and our community, we are proud to shine a light on our City and home.
Downtown properties and tenants transform into visually striking scenes, as locals compete to capture the essence of living through a summer in Saratoga Springs.
This year, we will be judging the following windows: The Dark Horse Mercantile, Impressions of Saratoga, Crafter's Gallery, Violet's of Saratoga, High Peaks Canna, Celtric Treasures, G. Willikers, Lifestyles of Saratoga, Scott Varley Real Estate, Saratoga Candy Co., Encounter, Gilded, Shade Tree Advisors and Interier Designs Atelier.
