Who Is Going to be There?
We’ll have LOTS of entertainment at this all day family friendly event! The bands for the outside daytime shows are still being signed, but one thing is definite: Enter The Haggis will have an evening concert at the historic Colonial Theatre at 7:30 PM! Please note that while ALL daytime activities are FREE, the evening concert is $22*.

The event will ALSO include: 2 stages featuring Celtic Rock bands (stage at Gay street end of block) and Traditional Celtic bands (stage at Main street end of block), Highland and Irish Step Dancers, 15 to 20 vendors selling Celtic wares and food, children’s events in the Colonial theatre during the day, the Brian Boru Bagpipe Band, Fraternal Organizations and Clan Tents, lots of local stores (including USA Kilts) and much, much more!

The BIG news is the Evening Concert with Enter the Haggis ! The tickets will be $22* and are available through USA Kilts by calling 610.935.3444. The concert starts at 7:30. After the concert, there will be an “after party” with the band at a local pub where you will be able to hang out with the band and get autographs!

*$2 of every ticket sold will go to an organization to help in the revitalization of the historic downtown district of Phoenixville.

Local Business Spotlight: G Lodge Restaurant

The G Lodge Restaurant is our most recent Local Business Spotlight. Located just a couple of miles from downtown to Phoenixville, the G Lodge has been a go to spot for breakfast and lunch for over 34 years. It was even featured in M.Night Shyamalan's 'The Happening'. The following is from RetroRoadmap.com:

If you’ve just visited Valley Forge National Park you may still be in the Colonial-era headspace, so why not continue in that vein by breakfast/lunching at the G Lodge? The inside of this unassuming roadside eatery (attached to an auto repair shop) echoes the log cabin structures of adjacent national park...just not as drafty.

Daily specials are listed above the counter, and there’s a lot on the menu as well. My eyes to always be bigger than my stomach here, though I’ve never sprung for the G-Buster special. Unlike many diner fans I am not a fan of breakfast homefries so I love that they have potato patties (deep fried!) as an option.
