CELEBRATE ALLENTOWN ALL YEAR: Help Support Allentown’s 250TH Anniversary

Signature Events

2011—2012 NEW YEAR’S EVE KICK-OFF

“Bells Will Be Ringing” on December 31, 2011 to kick-off the year-long celebration of Allentown’s 250th anniversary. Residents of all ages will be invited to participate in an array of New Year’s Eve festivities planned for downtown Allentown, including a Gala, carriage rides, music, ice-carving and an outdoor celebration at PPL Plaza complete with a countdown drop of a bell.

CELEBRATE ALLETOWN PARKS

The PARKS Celebration will bring together neighbors, churches, and civic associations to form independent yet city-wide festivities throughout the year that will showcase one of Allentown’s greatest physical assets—its parks.

GRAND PARADE AND STREET FAIR

To celebrate the founding of Allentown, event organizers are planning a grand Parade that will include student bands, businesses and organizations, neighborhood associations, uniformed men and women in service to our country and city, historical characters / floats, and local celebrities who will be invited “home” to participate in their hometown’s anniversary.

CELEBRATION OF ARTS AND CULTURE

Throughout the year, during signature events and Allentown’s annual programs, new and exciting enhancements will be incorporated to showcase the City’s rich fabric of Arts and Culture.

2012—2013 NEW YEAR'S EVE FINALE

Very similar to the kick-off event, this celebration will feature both a gala and outdoor public event. It will officially conclude Allentown’s anniversary year while it carries the energy, excitement and enthusiasm into the future.
