Description
Join us to "Light Up the Valley" with a new free community event on June 15th on Public Square in Wilkes-Barre. The whole community is invited to come out starting at 7 PM, following the Sunsets on South Main (SOMA) event in Midtown Village for this block-party-style event.
Attendees can enjoy live music at the brand-new band shell on Public Square, a variety of community vendors like Florology and Candelles, as well as activities like NEPA Cornhole & Axe Throwing by PA Party Rentals at this inaugural community event! When the sun goes down, we will also have a light display on the Square, to “Light Up The Valley.”
At 7 PM, Strawberry Jam will be performing at the Midtown Village Stage and The Rice Crew will be performing at the new band shell on Public Square. At 8:45 PM, the Husty BROS featuring AJ Jump will be onstage at the Public Square band shell.
On the band shell stage that night, the event will feature the Change Maker Awards, which will be given to individuals who consistently strive to make the Wyoming Valley a brighter place, through their efforts in diversity, equity, and inclusion; volunteerism; or innovation, as well as additional efforts that improve the overall quality of life in the Wyoming Valley. Nominations for these awards were submitted by the community, in collaboration with media sponsor The Times Leader Media Group.
This event is free to attend and open to the public and is offered in partnership with the City of Wilkes-Barre and the Diamond City Partnership.
A signature “Light Up The Valley” bracelet is available to the first 300 individuals who complete a free registration at
