“Wow! Erie is truly the Gem City…and it’s not just because of Lake Erie. On our brief visit, we had
time to enjoy the Erie Maritime Museum, an excellent meal and a gorgeous sunset. My husband
and I can’t wait to return – but for longer next time – and to discover more of what Erie has to offer.”

“I discovered Erie 40 years ago and have returned each summer, and in the off-seasons,
developing enduring friendships as well as an appreciation for all that Erie has to offer.
My family especially loved the tax free shopping when my son was growing up!

“We had a fantastic experience at Celebrate Erie! The streets of downtown put on quite the
display of local culture! Food trucks, restaurants, art, and music provided plenty of activities
for ALL to enjoy. Vibrant murals covered the streets of an entire city block. It was such a
wonderful time and we look forward to visiting Erie again soon!”
