Picklesburgh returns in July

Pittsburgh's popular pickle-prominent party is returning this year.

Why it matters: Picklesburgh has gained national accolades — including winning USA Today's 2025 Readers' Choice Award for Best Specialty Food Festival — and its presence adds excitement to the city during the hectic summer months.

Driving the news: The festival will return July 11 through July 13, the organizers Pittsburgh Downtown Partnership announced yesterday.

What they're saying: "We look forward to relishing this sweet victory with all of you when Picklesburgh returns in July," said partnership CEO Jeremy Waldrup in a release.

Fun fact: Last year's event attracted 250,000 people, breaking attendance records.

What's next: Additional details about location and other specifics will be announced in the coming months, according to the partnership.
