York was permanently settled beginning in the 1630s by English colonists. Prior to that time, the Abenaki people had been coming to York seasonally for centuries, farming and fishing near York River, and calling the region Agamenticus. Throughout the colonial period, York was the county seat for the Province of Maine, the center of legal activity, and a port town whose economy thrived on maritime trade. This walking tour explores the story of colonial York, and the economic and social transformations that took place following the American Revolution.
The tour begins promptly at the Old York Museum Center at 3 Lindsay Rd. Parking is available along Lindsay Road and in Old York’s parking lot. Please arrive no later than 5 minutes prior to the start time.
The tour lasts approximately an hour, and covers a two-block area along York Street. The terrain is uneven, and comfortable shoes are recommended. There is a slight incline on Gaol Hill.

The Mel Brooks Musical
Based on 1968 cult classic comedy, The Producers tells the story of theatrical producer Max Bialystock who realizes the road to his financial redemption lies in producing the worst musical ever written, raising 25,000% of the capital, and pocketing it all when the show is a one-night-only disaster. Aided and abetted by nebbish accountant named Leo Bloom, Bialystock options the rights to a “gay romp with Adolf and Eva.” Of course, if the show, by some insane stretch of credulity, were to become a hit, Bialystock and Bloom would be thrown in jail. And that’s exactly what happens.

Long Sands Beach Bonfire Benefit 2026
2026-09-05 18:00 - 21:00 | Long Sands Beach, York, ME, 175 Long Beach Ave, York, ME, 03909, United States
2026 Beach Bonfire Benefit
Saturday, September 5th – 6:00pm-9:00pm (Tide may cause an earlier end)
The Annual Beach Bonfire Benefit in York, Maine is a heartwarming tradition that has been going strong since 2001. It was initiated by the Woods family of Graystone Builders of Maine after the tragic events of 9/11. Their goal was to raise funds for the New York City Fire Department. Over the years, this event has evolved into a beautiful community gathering that supports various local charities and organizations.
Here’s how it works: The Woods family and their friends stack firewood to create a massive bonfire on Long Sands Beach in York. The warmth of the flames not only brings people together but also benefits those in need. The proceeds from this event, which has raised over $100,000, now go to organizations like the York Community Service Association Food Pantry (YCSAFP). It’s heartwarming to see how a simple act of kindling a bonfire can make a significant impact on people’s lives.
