2 - Three Fun Festivals -
Thursday, July 20 – Saturday, July 22: Zelienople’s Horse Trading Days
Not as much horse trading goes on at this festival as when it first began, but it’s a great family event. The main street of historic downtown Zelienople is full of events, a dog show, vendors and activities. Some parts of the celebration extend beyond town, so be sure to check the full schedule. Zelienople also has a great town park with a pool, skate/BMX area, ADA accessible playground and a wading stream — so come prepared!
Saturday, July 22 – Sunday, July 23: Vintage Grand Prix Race Day at Schenley Park
Vintage Grand Prix lineup of events begin July 9, but this challenging racecourse is the biggest attraction. The best place to watch the races is from the Bob O’Connor Golf Course where the Grand Prix stages its International Car Show. A weekend donation is $10. Parking is available on Flagstaff Hill for $30 and up to 4 people in the car receive a wristband for free entry into the event and shuttle transport to the golf course.
Friday, July 21 – Sunday, July 23: Picklesburgh
This has become one of the most popular Pittsburgh weekend events in July each year. Rated the top speciality food festival in the country for several years running, Picklesburgh is a can’t miss event for pickle lovers (or anyone who likes a good festival). It takes place in a new location this year — along the Boulevard of the Allies. Stop by the Lil’ Gherkins area for the kid activities and buy a chocolate-covered pickle to round out the day.
3 - Saturday, July 22: SkyWatch, Carnegie Science Center, 9 p.m.
This special event occurs hours after the museum has closed to guests — it needs to be dark to get the best view. Connect with the night sky with a planetarium performance and live views through a rooftop telescope. Tickets are $12.
What cosmic wonders lie just out of reach, waiting to be discovered among the starry frontier? Guests are invited to reconnect with the night sky through a featured planetarium performance and, weather-permitting, live views of night sky objects in stunning telescopic detail. In addition to the rooftop observing session, a complementary suite of indoor astronomical experiences will be accessible and comfortable for all guests. This event is rain or shine.
Doors open promptly at 9 pm with demos beginning in Buhl Planetarium lobby. Cost: $12 for nonmembers / $10 for members.
