Miners’ Memorial Weekend

The Miners’ Day Festival is sponsored by the Eureka Coal Heritage Foundation with assistance from WAVE (Windber Area Visioning Experience) and the Windber Hotel staff. It is an annual event to honor the coal miners who worked and died in the mines.  The festival has grown from a small parade on main street to the current 4-day street festival.

This event is designed to celebrate our rich heritage in coal and family values. Good, clean entertainment for the entire family! Visitors from around Southwestern Pa. and beyond come to enjoy events including car, motorcycle, and truck/ATV shows with live entertainment; street dances each night featuring area bands; fireworks; food and craft vendors; children’s petting zoo and games; parade and other fun family activities.
