The Gettysburg Brass Band Festival is excited to welcome back the electrifying West Philadelphia Orchestra to this year’s festival lineup! They’ll be making a special stop for a lively outdoor performance on Saturday, June 13, at 7:15 PM outside the historic Dobbin House Tavern on Steinwehr Avenue.
Presented through a partnership between the Gettysburg Brass Band Festival and the Steinwehr Avenue Business Improvement District (BID), this high-energy performance promises to bring a fresh and exciting atmosphere to downtown Gettysburg during festival weekend.
Blending Eastern European brass traditions with jazz, funk, and global dance music, the West Philadelphia Orchestra is known for turning every performance into a celebration. Whether you’re dancing in the street, relaxing with friends, or enjoying dinner and drinks nearby, this is a performance guaranteed to keep the energy going all evening long.
Festival organizers encourage visitors to come early, explore Steinwehr Avenue, and enjoy the many shops, restaurants, and attractions that make Gettysburg a vibrant destination. Bring a chair to relax and enjoy the show!
The Gettysburg Brass Band Festival runs June 10–14, 2026, featuring performances throughout Gettysburg and at the Pavilion Stage at the United Lutheran Seminary. Festival favorites, including “Bands in the Borough,” will once again bring live music to locations throughout town on Friday evening.
For nearly three decades, the Gettysburg Brass Band Festival has celebrated brass music traditions while supporting music education and providing free live performances for the community and visitors alike.
