FIRST EVER PIEROGIES AND PINTS FESTIVAL HOSTED BY
BLUE MOUNTAIN RESORT ON SATURDAY, AUGUST 24, AND SUNDAY, AUGUST 25

PALMERTON, Penn. – Blue Mountain Resort, nestled in the picturesque foothills of Pennsylvania’s Pocono Mountains, is pleased to invite summer weekend mountain-loving guests to enjoy its first Pierogies and Pints Festival on Saturday, August 24, and Sunday, August 25, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day. The festival offers family and friends delicious savory and sweet pierogi samplings, craft pints and other beverages for satisfying thirst-quenching in the beer garden, live music, craft vendors and plenty of neighborly fun for all!

Pierogies and Pints will be in the Valley portion of Blue Mountain – just behind the Adventure Center. On Saturday, Toolshed Jack, the five piece high energy Pennsylvania rock party band will perform favorite pop tunes from all eras. Live music for Sunday entertainment is still to be determined. The starring pierogies – hearty, filled dumplings prepared by various vendors – will be judged in a contest by festival goers with favorites chosen in Traditional, Dessert and Creative categories.

Tickets for general admission are priced at $12 each. Dough Dabbler tickets are $20 each and include six pierogi samples and entrance. Pierogi Pro tickets are $39 per ticket and include eight pierogi samples, a mug and first beer or soft drink and entrance. All tickets must be purchased online at skibluemt.com/pierogi-festival.

Thrilling Blue Mountain scenic lift rides will be running on festival days, Saturday and Sunday, from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Tickets must be purchased separately at skibluemt.com/lift-rides.

To make this summer weekend completely memorable, guests may decide to stay the night either glamping at one of Blue Mountain’s unique settings, or they may pitch a tent and enjoy the resort’s scenic campground. More camping information is available online.
