Father’s Day events in the Pittsburgh area

Last month, Mom had her special day and we told you about some events in the Pittsburgh area, so this month it’s time to check out a few events in honor of Dad.

Father's Day events in Pittsburgh
While you might not find views like this in the immediate Pittsburgh area, there are plenty of Father’s Day events to bring dad to.

Wigle Whiskey is hosting a pig roast at 2 p.m. in their new barrel house. Like their Mother’s Day event, this is a 21 and over only celebration.

If your dad’s more of a health nut than a foodie, there’s the 12th annual Man Up Father’s day 5k/10k Run/Walk and Fun Walk. This event is family friendly and raises money for the Obediah Cole Foundation for Prostate Cancer. The race kicks of at 8 a.m. on Sunday at Riverfront Park on the North Shore Trail, and the day-of registration is a little pricier than pre-registration.

For a family friendly twist on the traditional brunch, The National Aviary is hosting a Father’s Day Brunch. Contact The Aviary to preregister for a meal at either 10:30 a.m. or 12:30 p.m. under the tent in the Rose Garden.

If you’re on a budget, both the ToonSeum and the Pittsburgh Zoo offer free admission for dad on his special day. The ToonSeum only charges $4 for the rest of the family.
