Festivals In Pennsylvania
January to June
Pittsburgh - South West Region

Visit one of the festivals in Pennsylvania in the winter, spring and summer months in the Pittsburgh and southwestern region of the state.

Cold weather lovers will enjoy being outdoors and seeing ice sculptures, listening to music or watching a parade.

Yes, it's cold this time of year here, but if you dress in layers and stay warm you will love visiting a winter festival!

They're quite different from the festivals held during the warmer months, but a must see for winter vacationers.

If you've never seen an ice sculpture being made, you'll be amazed at how a block of ice turns into a piece of artwork.

It's pretty fascinating to watch them do their work.

Not all of the winter festivals are held outside! A few are held inside, so you won't have to worry about what the weather is doing outside.
