Make it a Weekend
If you plan to visit for the festival you can make an affordable, family-friendly weekend getaway out of your trip. July is a great time to explore Cumberland Valley. Visit a farm market, hike a trail, take a ride aboard the Pride of the Susquehanna riverboat, enjoy old-fashioned fun at a drive-in movie theatre, visit an escape room, or play to your heart's content at Carlisle Sports Emporium.
