Hudson Valley Steampunk blurs the line between roleplaying and, like, serious, exhilarating actual flight at Flights of Fancy 2018 at the Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome. The event features a Victorian picnic, tea dueling, steampunk marketplace, spirits-tasting and much more. New this year is the Flying Bicycle-Makers’ Challenge, in which participants submit vintage aviation steampunk-inspired builds with winning entries featured in the Aerodrome’s live airshow skit, Flying Bicycle vs. Rocketeer. Also featured is an aerial artist show in which skilled aerialists will take to the sky and dazzle with incredible airborne acts. Biplane rides are available an extra cost of $100 per person, weather permitting. Admission costs $25 for adults, $12 for kids.
