Riverfest weekend is BACK and BIGGER than ever! 🔥

As America celebrates its 250th anniversary, Riverfest 2026 will feature expanded heritage programming, outdoor recreation, boat tours, live entertainment, family-friendly activities, and MORE. This year’s event will culminate with a rare and unforgettable sight: the dramatic illumination of all 26 historic bridge piers across the river on Sunday evening, which has only been attempted once before in the past century! During this can’t-miss finale, the Veterans Memorial Bridge between Columbia and Wrightsville will close to vehicle traffic and open exclusively to pedestrians, giving you a chance to walk directly above the fiery line of bridge piers.

Thank you to the Wright’s Ferry Mansion Louise Steinman von Hess Foundation for funding the bridge burning lighting in memory of Louise McClure Tinsley Steinman von Hess.

Check out the full schedule to see all that’s NEW for 2026 and start planning your Riverfest weekend! https://riverfestpa.com/riverfest-schedule/

🌧️ Weather Update 🌧️

Unfortunately, due to rain in the forecast, we need to cancel our Columbia’s Fourth Saturday Earth Day: Touch‑A‑Truck event on April 25 from 2–4 PM. Rain and trash truck inspections don’t mix, and safety is our top priority.

Thank you so much for your flexibility and support. We’re looking forward to rescheduling this event for a better day!
