This weekend is full of concerts, festivals, and more throughout Northeastern Pennsylvania. Beat the heat with great entertainment from the debut of 2024’s Rockin’ The River to The Dalton Fire Company’s popular carnival.
Briggs Farm Blues Festival, Kevin Camp, dance parties, tribute bands, and everything in between. Go check out something cool happening in town this weekend with all the scheduled events below.
All venues/events listed in no particular order, the lineup changes weekly.
This week’s cover photo: A vital piece of the The Brown Initiative, a collective of multi-talented local siblings, is their live band Meet Me On Marcie. Catch Dianna, Christian, and James Brown playing The VSpot on Friday, July 12 in Scranton and then they head to Wilkes-Barre to perform at The Woodlands Inn on Saturday, July 13. When it comes to music and dance, these three can do it all!
