The Bemus Bay Pops Orchestra first played on The Italian Fisherman Restaurant's roof
on Labor Day 1998.

The Floating Stage was built in
2003 and now has live
performances by world-class
musicians every week during the
summer. The Floating Stage is
located on the Bemus Bay , which
allows viewers to watch
performances from land or boat.

We're continuing a tradition that began on the roof of the Italian Fisherman, and has seen
audiences climb to over 15,000 on the shore and in more than 600 boats rafted together in
the Bemus Bay .

The Floating Stage is made possible by the generous collaboration of Pepsi, KeyBank,
Nationwide, Arthur R. Gren, M&T Bank, Marty and Sandra Coyle, Community Bank, N.A.,
Bemus Point United Methodist Church , Brown and Brown Insurance, SE-93, Wegmans,
Italian Fisherman, and many other community-minded sponsors . (Please visit our page

Bay Pops!)
