Join us for an evening of live music, concertgoer memories and fantastic food and drink. You’ll also have the first opportunity to see WYEP’s Pittsburgh Performance Project interactive display, commemorating 12 legendary Pittsburgh concert venues.

Live performances from Bill Toms, Phat Mann Dee and Sonji will recreate famous historical Pittsburgh concert moments from the likes of Billy Strayhorn, Bob Marley, Nirvana and more. Music begins at 8:15 pm.

Come dressed for a rock and roll red carpet!

The event is free, but you must reserve your spots online.
