SPRING EVENTS
Dust off the cabin fever and get some fresh Northeastern Pennsylvania air! With the warmer weather fast approaching, enjoy the outdoors by discovering the hidden beauty of the trails within our parks. Feel the cool breeze come off the Roaring Brook water as you collect beautiful views of the Gorge in Nay Aug Park.
Looking for a challenge? Test your stamina with a hike to The Top of the World, a scenic vista located on the outskirts of Scranton that provides a stunning view of the valley! For those searching for an adrenaline rush, make sure to check out our mountain biking trails. For some peace and quiet on the water, cast your line on the Opening Day of Trout Fishing!
With spring comes a plethora of fairs and festivals for your family to enjoy. Come to Downtown Scranton and witness the Scranton St. Patrick's Parade, the largest annual celebration in Lackawanna County! Take part in the tradition and pageantry of Saint Ubaldo Day, a unique festival that only takes place in two places in the world: The sister Cities of Jessup, Pennsylvania, and Gubbio, Italy. For a day of thrill rides, visit Montage Mountain Resorts for the Lackawanna County Heritage Fair!
On those warm spring days, take an electric trolley to the PNC Field ballpark and root, root, root for our home team, the SWB RailRiders! If you should get caught in a rain shower, you can find shelter in our many indoor attractions. Take in a Broadway show and dinner, or peruse the exhibits in our artistic and historical museums.
