The Pennypack Events Committee is hosting the last Music in the Meadow event of the year on Friday, September 26, 2025 from 5:00 PM to 8:30 PM at the Pennypack Community Center, 130 Spring Avenue, Hatboro, PA 19040. To celebrate the end of summer and the beginning of a fun-filled fall, this event will include games, vendors, food trucks, community groups, kids’ foam (bubbles) party, and a special fireworks display beginning at 8 PM the night of the event.

This event is free to attend, and all are welcome to join us. In order to ensure this is a fun-filled event for everyone, there will be special restrictions in the neighborhood on West Lehman Avenue and the Spring Avenue Loop as follows:

Parking will not be permitted at the Pennypack Community Center at any time during the event. All attendees are encouraged to park in the Bank Street Municipal Parking Lot located off of West Lehman Avenue. Fire Police will be stationed near the entrance of the Bank Street Municipal Parking Lot to help guide attendees. Parking is also available on numerous side streets in the surrounding neighborhood. If you utilize on-street parking, please make sure your vehicle is lawfully parked and is not blocking driveways of those within the neighborhoods.

Beginning at 6:00 PM on the night of the event, the following streets will be restricted to local traffic only:

• West Lehman Avenue (from Bank Street to Spring Avenue)
• Spring Avenue (entire length)
• South Chester Avenue (from Spring Avenue to West Lehman Avenue)

Residents in these areas will still have access to their homes throughout the night of the event except for 30 minutes prior to and during the fireworks display. Residents should be prepared to provide their address to Fire Police personnel when accessing any areas closed to traffic by Fire Police. These restrictions will allow emergency personnel to have quick and easy access to the Pennypack Community Center and the fireworks area throughout the event.

The Fireworks Show will begin at approximately 8:00 PM. Beginning at 7:30 PM and once the fireworks show begins, no vehicular traffic will be permitted on Spring Avenue until the display has concluded including residents of the street. The show is expected to last approximately 10-15 minutes.

We would like to remind our residents that some pets adversely react to the lights and noise of fireworks. We suggest taking your pet out or having them indoors 15 minutes prior to the fireworks which again will start at approximately 8:00 PM and last for approximately 10-15 minutes.

If you plan on attending the event, below are some tips for you and your family:

• Remember to bring lawn chairs and blankets for the fireworks display.

• There is a walking trail that connects the Bank Street Parking Lot with the back of the Pennypack Property. If you park in the Bank Street Lot, follow the path towards the Pennypack Community Center for easy access to the event.

• If your children plan on participating in the bubbles/foam activity, we recommend bringing a swimsuit/water shoes or a change of clothes.
