McKees Rocks Community Development Corporation with the help of Grey Area Productions really took it to the next level for 2015’s 3rd annual Feastival. The fest started out as a way to bring positive vibes to a community that doesn’t always get the best press. Feastival has morphed from a community gathering with food vendors, local bands and other attractions to an event that not only all Pittsburghers would flock to, but out of state music fans would travel to as well. With national headliners Robert Randolph and the Family Band, Big Sam’s Funky Nation, coupled with one of the hottest Pittsburgh bands of 2015, The Commonheart, it’s easy to see why this is such an enticing draw.

Feastival is a family friendly event with not only great bands and DJ’s but also features food trucks, craft beer, family friendly activities and I Made It! Market. The free event took place Saturday, August 1st from 3-9 in the McKees Rocks Municipal Lot, Rte. 51 and Furnace Street.
