moe.down Moe hosts the semi annual festival "moe.down" at Snow Ridge Ski Area in
Turin, New York. Started in 2000, the festival runs for three days and occurs every
Labor Day weekend. In 2017 and 2019 the festival occurred during the Fourth of July holiday. The festival has attracted a wide variety of musical talent. Acts range from newer bands just emerging onto the scene (such as
Tea Leaf Green,
Nellie McKay and
Raq) to big-name acts and jam rock staples, such as
Les Claypool,
Blues Traveler, and
Mike Gordon (of
Phish), to pop rock icons such as
Leo Kottke,
The Flaming Lips,
The Violent Femmes, and
Perry Farrell. Each year, the amount of Moe.down attendees has steadily increased: The first Moe.down drew around 3,000 people while Moe.down VI in 2005 had close to 7,000, and 12,000 at Moedown 9. After ten years in Turin, moe.down moved to the Gelston Castle Estate in Mohawk, New York, for two years. In 2012, the event moved back to Turin, with the dates changing to August 10–12. On January 19, 2015, Moe announced that after 15 years moe.down would be postponed indefinitely. In 2017, the band announced the return of moe.down, pared down into a less-bloated, "return to roots" format. On April 3, 2019, Moe announced the lineup for their 2019 moe.down running July 4–6 at the Snow Ridge Ski Resort in
Turin, New York.

Moe cruise From March 7, 2004 until March 14, 2004, Moe embarked on their first musical cruise aboard the
Norwegian Sun through Les and Lynn Berger of Rhythms at Sea Cruises (formerly Rock the Boat Cruises). Setting out from
Miami, the
Norwegian Sun visited
Jamaica, The
Cayman Islands,
Costa Maya, and
Cozumel before returning to
Florida. The band performed each day except for the 12th, on the pool deck, Stardust Lounge, and the Observation Lounge. The shows on the 10th in the Observation Lounge were acoustic sets featuring questions and answer sessions with the band. In January 2007, the band returned for its second cruise, again through Les and Lynn Berger of Rhythms at Sea Cruises. The cruise took place January 7, 2007 through January 14, 2007 on the
Norwegian Jewel. Fans were treated to a different itinerary this time: the ship headed east out of
Miami and hit the ports of
San Juan (
Puerto Rico),
St. John's (
Antigua), and
St. Thomas (
US Virgin Islands). Unfortunately due to rough seas, the ship did not port at the
Great Stirrup Cay (
Bahamas).
