In 2026, the UnCaged Toy Piano Festival returns as a three day festival at its new home — the beautiful Hudson Valley.

The definition of toy piano expands beyond plastic keys and includes other rare and common keyboard instruments.

The 2026 festival will unleash the inaugural UnCaged Toychestra, a toy instrument ensemble, led by Liz Distefano and Phyllis Chen.
