FULTON – What are you hungry for?
This year’s Fulton Jazz Festival, Aug. 7-8, offers everything from New Orleans’ deep-fried Cajun mac and cheese balls to Philly cheese steak, to pulled pork, to oven-fresh baked goods, to ice cream, and more, said Bill Hubel, festival co-chair.
Syracuse native and jazz trumpeter Joe Magnarelli, with his wife, Akiko Tsuruga “Queen of the Organ,” headline the festival, which runs 5-11:30 p.m. on Aug. 7 and 4 -11 p.m. Aug. 8.
The event is on the shores of Lake Neahtahwanta, behind the Fulton War Memorial on Route 3 and admission is free.
“In addition to a fabulous entertainment lineup, this year’s festival features a delicious variety of food offerings for every taste,” Hubel said.
Blue Moon Grill will be introducing deep-fried Cajun mac and cheese this year, as well as New Orleans Chicken Jambalaya, Red Beans and Rice, Louisiana Popcorns Shrimp, and Shrimp Gumbo.
