![]() ![]() BoomDays celebrates the lifting of the Lake Erie - Niagara River Ice Boom. It is a unique way to mark the coming of spring. BoomDays commemorates our bustling waterways of days gone by and glorifies our natural, artistic and cultural wealth. BoomDays is a moveable feast and festivities extend from the Buffalo River to Old Fort Niagara. Event participants (known as Boomers) journey throughout the Buffalo/Niagara waterfront areas experiencing all that the region has to offer. ![]() Each winter, the New York Power Authority
works with Ontario Power Generation, a neighboring utility, to prevent
ice on the upper Niagara River. Ice buildup would impede power production.
![]() BoomDays was first celebrated April 2003. Each year the weekend-long celebration has attracted new “Boomers” and the event has grown. 2007 will mark the 5th anniversary of BoomDays and promises to be the largest celebration yet. ![]() Proceeds from BoomDays go to Friends of the E.M. Cotter, LaSalle Pride, and Just Buffalo Literary Center |
