Things to Do

Reflecting its heritage as the "Paris of Appalachia" there are dozens of museums, cultural attractions, and performance venues to visit. Pittsburgh is also rife with opportunities for outdoor recreation. You are never more than a few minutes from the water or the trail.

Pittsburgh has plenty to offer residents and fellows on their well-deserved days off. Just remember to turn off your pager!

Pittsburgh Sports Teams

Pittsburghers take their sports seriously, especially when it comes to the Steelers (6x Super Bowl champs) and the Penguins (5x Stanley Cup champs). Even though the Pirates are terrible, the view from PNC Park is not to be missed and there's always hope ... and highlights of Roberto Clemente and Willie Stargell. And don't forget about the Pittsburgh Riverhounds! Our professional soccer team's Highmark Stadium offers more stunning views of downtown Pittsburgh.

"Picklesburgh" (top) is an annual festival that is typically held on the Roberto Clemente Bridge and features all things pickled. Pierogies (bottom) are an Eastern European dish that is a must try while you are here.
