Pennsylvania is inviting travelers to take a break from the daily grind with the launch of its new “Get Away” campaign, unveiled today by the Department of Community and Economic Development. As part of the broader Pennsylvania: The Great American Getaway initiative, the campaign aims to showcase the state’s natural beauty, historic charm, and hidden destinations as the perfect remedy for everyday stress.
Rolling out across major cities and regional drive markets, the campaign features vibrant ads in transit hubs, on television, and online, portraying the relief of escaping crowded commutes and busy routines in favor of relaxing summer adventures across the Keystone State.
Visitors can explore Pennsylvania’s 120+ free state parks, savor local cuisine, or unwind in quiet corners like Pine Creek Gorge. A series of curated “Vibe-tineraries” offer personalized trip ideas for families, couples, solo travelers, or groups of friends.
Tourism plays a significant role in Pennsylvania’s economy, generating \$76.7 billion in 2022 and supporting nearly half a million jobs. With major events on the horizon — including the 2026 celebration of America’s 250th birthday — the state is investing \$64 million in tourism promotion and event preparation to capitalize on growing interest.
From wine tastings and outdoor escapes to headline events like the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 in Philadelphia and The Great American Getaway 400 at Pocono Raceway, Pennsylvania, this season promises something for every travelerdced.pa.
