The Whitehall Area Chamber is proud to partner with the Borough of Catasauqua and Columbia Care to present the 2023 Catasauqua StrEAT Fest on April 15th, 2023!
The Whitehall Area Chamber of Commerce, proud partner of the Greater Lehigh Valley Chamber, is pleased to bring back Catasauqua’s EATS Fest for its third year on Saturday, April 15th from 11-3 PM. Partnering with the Borough of Catasauqua, this event is designed to kick off the spring season with delicious eats from local food trucks, while providing a festive atmosphere with live music from DMC Duo (11 AM-1 PM) and Chasing Daylight (1:30-3 PM), plus dozens of craft and business vendors. The EATS festival will has a strong emphasis on good eats, bringing lots of great cuisines to Catasauqua for the community to enjoy.
“In our third year, the Whitehall Area Chamber is excited to continue to kick off the spring festival season in 2023 with Catty EATS! Each year, this festival has grown – people are ready for spring, ready to be outside in a fun atmosphere and excited to try great food the Lehigh Valley’s food truck scene has to offer,” said Kylie Adams-Weiss, Assistant Vice President of Affiliated Chambers for the Greater Lehigh Valley Chamber of Commerce. “We’re happy to have been working full steam ahead with the Borough of Catasauqua to support our local businesses and to entice the community to come out for a fun afternoon in 2023!”
Festivities will begin at 11 AM in Catasauqua Park, a first for the festival which has historically been held on Front Street. The festival will feature 14 food trucks and vendors, 40+ crafters, small businesses and nonprofit vendors. Live music in the park’s bandshell will feature DMC Duo (11 AM – 1 PM) and Chasing Daylight (1:30-3 PM), both based in the Lehigh Valley, as well as a rock wall for children. Attendees are encouraged to “BYO-C”, bring their own chairs, to grab a bite to eat and hear the music.
“We have been working hand-in-hand with Catasauqua’s borough staff to ensure this event will be a fun event for all who attend,” said Jessica O’Donnell, EVP of Affiliated Chambers, Northern Tier and Easton Area Initiatives for the Greater Lehigh Valley Chamber of Commerce. “In years past and due to the pandemic, we were forced to change plans and pivot frequently, and we’re grateful for much smoother sailing in 2023, much to the credit and support of our local police department and fire police. Between the handmade craft items, great food and small businesses, there will be a little bit of something for everyone!”
