One of Dauphin County’s premier festivals returns next month, and this year’s lineup is better than ever.
Presented by M&T Bank in partnership with Central Pennsylvania Music Hall of Fame and The River 97.3, Proudly PA! returns on Saturday, June 13, 2026, to Fort Hunter Park in Harrisburg for a day along the Susquehanna filled with live music, local food, Pennsylvania-made beer, wine and spirits, artisan vendors, and that easy summer festival energy.
And this year’s music lineup — let’s just say I screamed when I saw it. Truly impressive.
(Psst — don’t miss your exclusive reader discount below.)
A Pennsylvania music lineup worth planning around
Proudly PA! has always been about celebrating the commonwealth, but the 2026 lineup has really taken it up a notch.
This year features an incredible mix of Pennsylvania artists, including Low Cut Connie (!!), Snacktime (!!), The Circa 68, The Wild Hymns, and more.
That’s a lineup with real range: big-stage energy, danceable grooves, rock-and-roll swagger, rootsy harmonies, and the kind of live performances that make you want to grab your people and stay for the whole day. Listen, if you haven’t seen Low Cut Connie, scroll immediately to the bottom and score your tickets — use my code! — now.
Set against the backdrop of beautiful Fort Hunter Park, there’s plenty of room to spread out, and this is the kind of music festival you can bring the kids to (my friends and I are all!). It’s both laid-back and fun.
Come hungry, stay awhile
Part of what makes Proudly PA! feel so full is that it’s not just a concert. It’s a showcase of Pennsylvania food producers, vendors, and makers, all gathered in one beautiful place.
Expect delicious bites from local food trucks and vendors, plus some of the state’s finest wine, craft beer, and spirits. Each guest receives a Proudly PA! souvenir glass, which is exactly the kind of little festival detail I love – useful while you’re there and fun to take home.
You can bring a picnic basket if you want, but with this much good food on site, you may not need one.
A celebration of the best of PA
What I love about Proudly PA! is how it brings together so many pieces of our state in one event: the musicians, the food and drink makers, the artisans, the riverfront setting, the local partners, and the people who show up to support it all.
Browse the artisan vendors. Bring your lawn chair. Find your spot. Toast with something made here. Catch a band you already love, and maybe discover a new favorite.
