Join Us for a Weekend Extravaganza!

Friday & Saturday – June 7 & 8, 2024

Experience the thrill of Allegheny RiverTrail Park’s spectacular event weekend! Join us for two days of excitement and community celebration as we open the doors to our Front Yard at Allegheny RiverTrail Park.

When Allegheny RiverTrail Park acquired six acres of land and 1.5 miles of new trail, we didn’t just expand our boundaries—we ignited a transformation—breathing new life into our riverfront.

What was once an industrial scrapyard is now a vibrant public green space.

Our adventure doesn’t stop there. We will continue improving our current park spaces to ensure they’re nothing short of amazing for you!
