First Night Saratoga 2010 City Center performances will make the evening complete for First Night revelers in search of the best “feel good” evening imaginable!!

Note: Due to the popularity of these acts and the mandated capacity restrictions in the City Center, it is vital that the auditorium be cleared following each act’s 40-minute sets, and exit through the Saratoga Hotel gallery doors. Please comply with this request so that the crowds awaiting entry to the next show may be treated with consideration. First Night thanks the audience for their understanding.

A huge "THANK YOU" to the hundreds of First Night Saratoga Volunteers, without whose commitment and support, First Night would not be possible.
