Ithaca's Best Live Music Venue! - Ithaca Times

"Best of Ithaca 2007"

Castaways presents an awesomely diverse calendar... featuring the best touring national, international and regional bands as well as local music from Ithaca's famously rich live music scene.  In a typical week, you could expect to choose from Reggae (Ithaca's #1 weekly theme night every Tuesday), Rock (all varieties from classic rock covers to indie and funk), Roots American music (old-time, bluegrass, cajun-zydeco), World (African, Celtic), Dance Music, live Indie Hip Hop, Soul, and so much more!  If the music is good, we'll bring it to town, reflecting Ithaca's broad taste in music styles, and our belief that people these days want listen to a broader spectrum of music than ever before!

If you just want to hang with friends, or the band's not to your liking, fear not... our deck on the Cayuga Lake Inlet is a great place to hang with friends without having to compete with the band...  It takes all kinds to make the world go round, and we make 'em all happy at Castaways - whether you are coming down for show, out for a cocktail after dinner, or cruising with the girls or guys, come on down for a great time!
