About This Event

PACA invites you to Lights Over the Roof, a one-night rooftop celebration timed to Erie's annual Lights Over Lake Erie fireworks display. On Thursday, July 3, our State Street rooftop becomes the best seat in the city for the show.

Doors open at 7:30 PM. Enjoy live music throughout the evening from the DBM Trio and Midnight Frolic, grab a bite from Tariq's Best Philly, and help yourself at the complimentary bar. At 10 PM, the fireworks launch over the bayfront, viewed right from the roof. The night wraps up by 11 PM.

This is a free event, though donations are gratefully accepted and directly support PACA's programming as a nonprofit arts collective: live theatre, galleries, music, and artist studios all under one roof at 1505 State Street.

Weatherproof: if it rains, food and music move indoors to our 5th floor while the rooftop stays open for the fireworks view. Please plan to stay within marked areas. All guests attend at their own risk.
