Stay warm this weekend with a piping’ hot line-up of live entertainment! Trust me, these talented bands, artists, and DJs playing throughout Northeastern Pennsylvania are worth braving the cold for.
All venues/events listed in no particular order, the lineup changes weekly.
Cover Photo of the Week: U2 Tribute Band, Unforgettable Fire came to Rockin’ The River in the city of Wilkes-Barre over Summer 2024, and the high-energy group is back in NEPA this weekend! Founded in 1995, this band aims to gives fans the most authentic possible U2 experience— sound, style, and all. See for yourself at Mauch Chunk Opera House in Jim Thorpe on Friday, Jan. 10.
