It’s the most wonderful time of the year. That is if you’re looking for summer vacation ideas. The PA Family Travel Fair is back and better than ever! The 5th annual event, hosted by Where & When Pennsylvania, will be held on Saturday, April 15, at the Calvary Church campus in Lancaster. The free travel fair is designed to bring Pennsylvania destinations and attractions together in one location so you can plan your vacation in PA. The event has something for everyone and won’t cost a dime. There are no sales pitches or pressure, just a fun day with children’s activities, giveaways, great entertainment, and tons of ideas for your next getaway.

Speaking of getaways, one lucky attendee will win an Endless Mountains Getaway in northeastern Pennsylvania worth up to $2,000 thanks to our Getaway sponsor, Endless Mountains Visitors Bureau!


SHOWS & ACTIVITIES

Papa Tater will provide magic and chuckles when he performs at our noon show. Can’t make it at noon? Stop by Papa Tater’s booth; he’ll be there all day. For the first time since 2019, Clyde Peeling’s Reptiland will be back with an “Animals of the Rainforest” show at 2 p.m. Learn about the rainforest and the animals that live under the canopy. When not doing the show, Clyde Peeling’s Reptiland zoologists will be at their booth so you can get close to these incredible creatures. Both shows will take place on the café stage; just follow the signs. Plus, food trucks, mascots, Passport to PA kids’ activity, WJTL’s Kid’s Cookie Break, and door prizes.
