2023 Sinterklaas Festival Recap

Record numbers march into Rhinebeck for Sinterklaas

The streets of Rhinebeck were packed on Saturday night with ants, owls, bees, sturgeon, floating mushrooms, our favorite dancing Polar Bear, and, of course, an appearance from the man himself during the annual Sinterklaas Festival Day!

It was also filled with children of all ages enjoying the day of ruckus entertainment throughout the Village of Rhinebeck.

“I am not so good at numbers, but I KNOW it was the most well attended EVER!,” creative director Jeanne Flemming told HVNY on Monday. “It was just so wonderful!”
