Celebrate Erie

CelebrateErie returns for a four-day run starting Aug. 13, offering up a variety of entertainment options down on State Street. The annual street festival gives Erieites a chance to check out local artists, dancers, and of course, live music.

If you're looking to check out CelebrateErie's three headliners, Fran Cosmo, Kool & the Gang, and Tanya Tucker, then you'll want to be at the Main Stage at 8 p.m. Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. If you're not too keen on the headliners, there are several talented Erie performers that will on display at the street festival's stages, including what's sure to be a highlight set from Eric Brewer and the Erie All Star Band. – Alex Bieler
