Allegheny County officials have announced the 2026 summer concert series lineups for Hartwood Acres in Hampton and the South Park Amphitheater.
The concerts will feature offerings from local food trucks as well as beverages from Hop Farm Brewing and Black Dog Wine at every performance, which take place at 6 p.m. The bands will be a mix of local, national and international artists covering a wide variety of genres.
This year’s calendar also includes a special patriotic-themed aerial drone show to mark America’s 250th anniversary at Hartwood Acres on July 5. More than 200 drones will light up the sky, synchronized to music by the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra.
For that show in particular, county officials are asking a suggested donation of $30 per vehicle, which will benefit the Allegheny County Department of Human Services’ programs for youth and children.
More than two dozen other performances throughout the summer are free for all ages to attend.
