Lake Placid is famously known for its rich Olympic history serving as host to two Winter Games: 1932 and 1980.

Beyond the Olympics, the area hosts several well-known annual events such as the I Love New York Horse Show, Ironman Lake Placid, and it is home to the Empire State Winter Games as well as the CanAm Hockey Tournament.  Lake Placid will be Hosting the University Games In 2023, housing nearly 3000 athletes and coaches.
