Music, music, music
The annual Deutschtown Music Festival is Friday and Saturday. The festival showcases more than 300 bands and 30-some venues. The seventh annual event, which is free, takes place all over the North Side’s Deutschtown neighborhood — both inside and outside. Three main stages are featured: One in Allegheny Commons Park, the second on a closed-off block of Foreland Street, and the third is the Skyline Stage, right outside the Sue Murray pool with an amazing view of Downtown. There will be a beer garden in a closed-off portion of the city-owned parking lot next to the main stage and Foreland Street.
The festival also will include a Sunday gospel brunch as well as more than 25 food trucks, an art market and family-friendly activities.

Did you know Jenn Colella (who is taking time off from starring in Come From Away to play Peter Pan at the Pittsburgh CLO next week) was initially working as a stand-up comic in L.A., not a beltress?? —> https://t.co/bMZIUNvvOf
