Wally Lake Fest returns to Lake Wallenpaupack this weekend!

Wally Lake Fest LGWally Lake Fest has repeats and first-timers across the region eagerly awaiting the sights, sounds and sails set for Friday, August 26 through Sunday, August 28.

Whether landlubber or lake-lover the vote is in, this hugely popular three-day event carries on as one of the hottest tickets in town! Making waves out-and-about Lake Wallenpaupack and downtown Hawley, attendees will be more than pleased by the medley of festive fun featuring an open market fair; boat, watercraft and outdoor show; imaginative boat parade and live music literally ON the lake!
