With the Pittston St. Patrick’s Parade, Mardi Gras Masquerades, and Mountainfest, it’s a HUGE weekend for entertainment in Northeastern Pennsylvania that you won’t want to miss!
It was hard to even find every artist and venue with live music this weekend because there’s just so much happening right here in town. Don’t sit home, pick a place and get out there!
All venues/events listed in no particular order, the lineup changes weekly.
Cover Photo of the Week: Award-winning retro cover group, M80, entertains audiences with high-energy performances inspired by the 80s and 90s hey-days of MTV. This weekend, the exciting party band will play at Mohegan Pennsylvania‘s Breakers on Saturday, March 1, during the casino’s Mardi Gras celebrations.
