The sounds of summertime in Pittsburgh return as the Dollar Bank Three Rivers Arts Festival, a production of the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust, welcomes hundreds of thousands of guests and artists for free art and music. Here are some tips and tricks to get the most out of your experience.

When: June 5-8, 2025

The four-day celebration of the arts runs 12-9 pm daily. Some attractions are open on an ongoing basis while others have specific hours of operation.

  • Headliners | 7:30-9 pm daily
  • All Other Performances | 12-7:30 pm daily
  • Artist Market | 12-8 pm daily
  • Giant Eagle Creativity Zone | 12-6 pm daily

Where: 15th Street Plaza | Strip District

Downtown Pittsburgh has been home to the Festival since 1960. Due to construction of the festival's future home at the 8th Street Block Civic Space, this year's Festival will take place in the riverfront lots at the 15th Street Plaza along Waterfront Place in Pittsburgh’s Strip District. Thanks to The Buncher Company, who owns the property, and lot operator, Alco, the Festival will take place near its namesake three rivers, not far from its future long-term home in the Cultural District.

The Cultural District is a project of the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust, producer of the Dollar Bank Three Rivers Arts Festival.
