We saved the best for last. Join us TONIGHT for the Riverfest grand finale! 🔥
We’re illuminating all 26 historic Columbia-Wrightsville bridge piers across the river at 7:45 PM. This rare event has only been attempted once before in the past century and is truly a can’t-miss celebration. Plus, the Veterans Memorial Bridge (PA Route 462) will be closed to vehicular traffic from 7:30 PM – 9:30 PM to offer an unparalleled viewing opportunity.

Special thanks CHIQUES ROCK OUTFITTERS and the Wright’s Ferry Mansion, Louise Steinman von Hess Foundation, in memory of Louise McClure Tinsley Steinman von Hess for bringing this spectacle to life.

Don’t miss your chance to see the river ablaze in this special spectacle! Learn more about the historical significance behind the bridge burning and where you can watch: https://riverfestpa.com/activities/
