Lockport Old Canal Days

There’s not a whole lot to review, quite honestly. This is probably going to be short and sweet. We arrived around 5 p.m. on Saturday and nearly every booth was closed. 3 of the food vendors were still operating, but we missed one of the trucks we’d been hoping to see because they ran out of food. That apparently was a common occurrence. Most people were gathered around the band tent, but even that wasn’t as packed as you’d expect. Maybe it’s me, but most festivals I go to are pretty hoppin’ in the evenings on Saturdays. This one felt like one of those malls that are on their last legs with a couple of shops (tents) barely hanging on.
I didn’t come here to really festival it up, so that’s good. I really just wanted to hit one of the food trucks that was thankfully still operating when we arrived. Maybe the length of time the festival tried to operate was just too long. 13 hours is a LOOOONG day.
Also, there were no signs to designate parking, at least coming from the south. There was a detour setup, and everyone was parking on residential streets, causing traffic chaos when you could only go one direction down a normally bi-​directional street.
But on the upside, they had a very nicely-​designed map and website.
So there’s that.
