The Heinz Field Kickoff and Rib Festival is returning this year, organizers announced Tuesday.

The event, which was canceled last year because of the pandemic, will run over Labor Day weekend from Sept. 2 to 6.

Admission to the festival is free, while food, drinks and access to activities are available for purchase. The Clarks will also perform on Friday, Sept. 3.

The Rib Fest annually celebrates the start of a new football season. It started in 1990 at Three Rivers Stadium.

Those interested in participating in the festival as a vendor, performer or sponsor can find more information on Heinz Field's website.
