Musikfest is the largest annual event in the Lehigh Valley, and once again we were able to be part of the fun! This 10-day August event is the country's largest free music festival, and it generally draws more than 1 million people to Bethlehem, PA annually. Locals love this event because it provides 10 days of great music, with enough variety to appeal to everybody; and, it also provides a huge economic impact to the city and the entire Lehigh Valley area since it attracts people from all over Pennsylvania, many of our nearby states and others from near and far. We opened the event on the first day this year - preview day - and it drew nearly 7,000 ticketed guests for the evening's headliner performance.
Although we are only there for a single, day, organizers always go above and beyond to be accommodating and welcoming to us, and this year was no different. Thanks to our friends there, we were set up in a prime location to be seen by and interact with concert goers. We were right along the walkway to the big evening concert which was so much fun!
We received many praises about the quality of our care, and for always being available to patients seven days a week including weekends and holidays on a walk-in basis, no appointments necessary
As always, we were happy to provide complimentary blood pressure checks for a steady stream of adult Fest-goers who stopped by our tent on event day. Our give-away items were also a big hit. We shall definitely return again next year as this has become one of our favorite "legacy" events over the years. Kassie Hilgert, the organization's President and CEO and her team of event organizers are great to work with; and, they always help us by providing easy access to our set-up location, and convenient parking nearby. This location also hosts the Christkindlmarkt and PeepsFest events, which we also generally build into our booking schedule each year.
