Last year at about this time I attended the Renaissance Fair in Tuxedo, NY for the Chrononaut's Time Travel Picnic.
It appears it is becoming an annual event, as the third one will be this Saturday. I will be there, camera and goggles at the ready. :) If you've wanted to go to a steampunk meetup in the area, I'd recommend coming by for the meet, then enjoying the rest of the day at the faire.
