2024 Summer Events Preview
Plenty to keep you busy during Erie's most playful season
May 1, 2024 at 10:30 AM
Dean Zeller
Mark your calendars and get ready to have a busy summer filled with live music, physical challenges, food and drink festivals, farmers markets, vendor markets, heritage festivals, and county fairs.
What's better than summertime in Erie? What was only a few months (or maybe days) ago a gray, chilly landscape suddenly bursts into bloom — Erieites throw open their windows and are ready to get outside and soak up the slew of sun-drenched community events jammed into the three most beautiful months of the year.
And this year is no different. With the return of many anticipated music and community events (like Celebrate Erie, 8 Great Tuesdays, and the triumphant resurrection of the Blues & Jazz Festival), there are plenty of other opportunities to take advantage of all that Erie has to offer — we're talking farmers markets, vendor fairs, celebrations of local history, athletic competitions, heritage fests, food and drink gatherings, art events, and decades-long (sometimes centuries-long) standing county fairs. You could find something on this list to keep you busy nearly every single day this summer, and why not? With most of these events coming to you free of charge (noted when so), nothing's stopping you from taking full advantage.
So grab a lawn chair or blanket and let's get ready for an epic summer, Erie!
