Highlands Festival is a one-day event focused on showcasing the eclectic Original Highlands neighborhood and businesses. By using all local vendors and all local workers, we hope to boost the economy and foster local buying through a fun, family-friendly free event! Highlands Festival will have over 100 local art and craft vendors, local not-for-profits, live music from Soul Circus (3-7PM) and Wax Factory (8-11PM), and food from 7 of your favorite Highlands restaurants! Enjoy a variety brews from Yuengling and cocktails from Tito’s and Four Roses while you keep an eye on the tots playing in the Family Fun Zone, and jamming to the spinning tunes of DJ Tank. There’s no charge to attend, so bring the whole crew and have a blast at the hottest block party of the year, all while supporting your local economy!

This year’s proceeds will again benefit The Arrow Fund (TAF), an organization dedicated to increasing public awareness of all forms of animal cruelty by providing veterinary care and support to animal victims of extreme torture, abuse, and neglect and encouraging vigorous criminal prosecution of animal abusers. $7,000 was raised for the care of animals at the Highlands Festival in 2018.
