Free Summer Concert Series
2026 SCHEDULE COMING SOON
Allegheny RiverTrail Park is turning up the volume this summer with the return of its Free Summer Concert Series, sponsored by The Short Family! Now in its fifth season and better than ever, the series features nationally rising artists, some of Pittsburgh’s favorite bands, a waterfront stage, expanded food and drink options, and unbeatable views… for FREE!
Concerts take place on the second Friday of each month from June to September. Come as early as 5pm to grab a spot on the lawn, a beer from Trace Brewing, and food from various alternating food truck options. The shows begin at 7 PM!
Bring your own chairs or picnic blanket and grab a spot on the river’s edge, on the lawn, or perched atop Eagles Watch – a favorite lookout for park visitors offering unmatched views of the river and the entire park.
Boaters are also encouraged to float on the Allegheny River and enjoy the music from the water! We’ll have speakers specially facing the river for a super cool experience for all. See you there!
What else to know
Food & beer is available at 5pm, shows start at 7pm. We encourage walking, carpooling, or using Uber whenever possible because our parking is limited. Indulge in delicious food options from various food trucks available for purchase. Our concerts are family-friendly and go on rain or shine!
