Officials with Live! Casino Pittsburgh are gearing up to host their first car cruise, festival and fundraiser next week, rounding out their summer event series.
The car cruise will run from noon to 5 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 14, in the casino parking lot at Hempfield’s Westmoreland Mall.
In addition to cars, the event will feature live music and a DJ, food trucks, a beer garden, silent auctions, a 50/50 raffle and more.
