Tabitha Meeks: Three Rivers Arts Festival
FREE EVENT
The Dollar Bank Three Rivers Arts Festival, a production of the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust, is a celebration of the arts in Pittsburgh attracting thousands of guests from the region and beyond for live music, an Artist Market, dance, gallery exhibitions, creative family activities, and more. The Festival has remained free and open to everyone since its founding in 1960.
The 2026 Festival will mark the grand opening of Arts Landing—the transformative outdoor civic space in Pittsburgh’s Cultural District, envisioned and operated by the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust, that will serve as the iconic Festival’s long-term home.
Visitors and artists will discover a vibrant new festival atmosphere at Arts Landing, featuring a great lawn and permanent stage, beautiful landscaping and lighting, newly unveiled public art, a play area for families, public restrooms, and more. The Festival’s full lineup of local, national, and international performing and visual artists will be announced in the spring of 2026.
Along with the new location, the Cultural Trust has updated the schedule for the 2026 Festival. The free event will run for seven days, June 5–7 (Friday-Sunday) and 11–14 (Thursday-Sunday), spanning two weekends with a short midweek pause. The updated schedule welcomes visitors on historically popular festival days while providing logistical solutions in the downtown site.
