Concert on the Lawn Update, August 29, 2024
Penn State Fayette’s ninth-annual Concert on the Lawn will be moving indoors due to forecasted rain, and the planned fireworks display has been canceled to ensure the safety and comfort of all visitors. We sincerely apologize for this change of plans, but we know it's still going to be an amazing concert!
While this change means limited space compared to the lawn, it also brings the opportunity for a more intimate setting with Hollywood Nights: The Bob Seger Experience. This nine-piece band from New Jersey is dedicated to recreating the unmistakable sound and energy of Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band, promising roaring raspy vocals and high-energy performances.
The concert remains free to attend with no tickets required. Campus will open to 1,200 attendees at 5:30 p.m., with the performance beginning at 7:00 p.m. Free parking is available, but attendees are encouraged to carpool due to limited space. ADA-accessible parking is available, and golf cart transportation within campus grounds can be arranged upon request. Please contact Campus Police Services at 724-430-4120 for more information.
Please note that for the safety of all guests, coolers, and large bags are not permitted inside the venue. Small handbags and purses are allowed. Food and non-alcoholic beverages will be available for purchase throughout the evening.
