Good news, pickle lovers: if some of the weather has been a deterrent from checking out the iconic Pittsburgh festival, you’ll have more of a chance this weekend.
The Pittsburgh Downtown Partnership announced on Saturday morning that the Sunday hours for Picklesburgh will be extended. The festival will open early at 11 a.m. on Sunday and run until 7 p.m.
“The heart of Picklesburgh has always been our small businesses,” said CEO Jeremy Waldrup in a statement. “These are folks who prepped for months, who have been proudly schlepping pickles for years because they love this city as much as we do. This weekend hasn’t gone the way we expected, but the forecast is turning a corner on Sunday, giving our vendors the finish they deserve. So, we’re asking all of western PA: come out Sunday.
