Pittsburgh Will Surprise You This Fall

Fall fun begins in our city of multitudes

Fall in Pittsburgh means can’t-miss festivals, world-class haunted attractions and seas of black and gold rooting on the Steelers.

Temps may be cooling off, but the reasons to visit Pittsburgh just keep heating up this fall. In September, we get things started with a jam-packed Labor Day weekend of fun then celebrate culture with the Pittsburgh Irish Festival, Pittsburgh Soul Food Festival, The Original Pittsburgh Taco Festival and Pittsburgh Chinese Cultural Festival.

Get your Terrible Towels ready, because the Steelers officially kick off their NFL season this month at Acrisure Stadium. Plus, this month is the return of the Backyard Brawl as Pitt takes on rival WVU and the Pirates, Riverhounds and even Penguins are in action.

School is officially back in session for college students in the city. We're here to help with BURGH101, a free digital pass that lets students and their families save big at 60 spots to do more during their off campus journeys.

The Pick is In! Pittsburgh will host the NFL Draft in 2026.

Partnered with the Pittsburgh Steelers, Pittsburgh has officially been selected to host the NFL Draft!
