Friday Night Lights

Picture this: warm summer breezes, live music, locally crafted cider, wine and beer, s’mores, and unforgettable sunset views at one of the most breathtaking landscapes in Chester County… Friday Night Lights is the must-not-miss event of the summer.

Live music: Beloved local band of three brothers (by both blood and friendship), The Flying Komorowski Brothers return to headline alongside openers Madisun Bailey, a Maryland-based songwriter who draws inspiration from nature and blends soul, alternative jazz, and a unique rhythmic guitar style.

Nature at its best: Relax and unwind in the stunning beauty of the preserve.

Make it cozy: Bring your favorite blankets or lawn chairs and settle in for a comfortable evening.

Food & drink: Treat yourself to local flavors available for purchase, including:

Craft beer from East Branch Brewing Company and Animated Brewing Company
Local cider and wine from family-owned Dressler Estate
Delicious food truck offerings including Cheezy Vegan (all-vegan), Buddy’s Burgers, Breasts, & Fries (featuring veggie burgers), Delco Steaks (featuring veggie and vegan options), and KOI on the Go (Asian/Latin fusion with vegetarian options, plus coffee and desserts).
Star gazing with local astronomy clubs.

New location: We love our birds and we hope you do too. Fields are particularly valuable as nesting areas and food sources for birds such as Bobolink, Eastern Meadowlark, and Grasshopper Sparrow. Two-thirds of grassland birds like these have experienced population declines, and one-quarter of them may soon face threatened or endangered status. We made the decision not to mow the field to protect our birds. We will be hosting Friday Night Lights at the Lenfest Center with sweeping views of the preserve.
