Three Rivers Regatta
|
Every summer since the early 1980s Pittsburgh has been home to the Three Rivers Regatta, a river festival that includes power boat races, concerts, various river activities, lots of food and an incredible Zambelli fireworks display to cap off the weekend. The river is generally full of local boaters that drop anchor to partake in the festivities. Once held in early August, the Regatta now coincides with Pittsburgh's Fourth of July celebration. The fireworks display on July 4 is a majestic sight when combined with the mirrorlike reflections on the river. The Three Rivers Regatta is one of Pittsburgh's showcase events. |
