WAPPINGERS FALLS- The Hudson Valley Renegades, the High-A affiliate of the New York Yankees, and K104 are proud to announce that Heritage Financial Park will serve as the home for the 2023 K104 Cupcake Festival. The event will be held at Heritage Financial Park on Sunday, May 14, 2023 from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

“This is going to be a great event! Having events at Heritage Financial Park is such a pleasure,” said Pamal Broadcasting COO Chuck Benfer. “The Renegades and Dutchess County are great partners to work with, which makes planning and hosting events like K104’s Cupcake Festival and K-Fest a real joy. The stadium looks amazing, the staff and team led by their GM Tyson Jeffers are very cooperative and accommodating. It feels like home there!”
The event is free and open to the public. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the American Cancer Society.
