Summer Solstice Festival at Russell Elliot Park Today
Feasterville Trevose, PA · June 20, 2026
The longest day of the year is finally here, and the humidity is taking a rare morning off. Pack the sunscreen for the solstice festival—we have over 15 hours of daylight to burn through today.
📰 The Lead
Today marks the official start of summer, and the community is gathering at Russell Elliot Memorial Park to celebrate the solstice in style. This year’s festival is the largest yet, featuring a curated lineup of local musicians and a dozen food trucks ranging from artisanal tacos to classic boardwalk fries. The highlight of the afternoon will be the 1:00 PM ribbon-cutting for the new "Unity Garden," a collaborative project between the township and local scouting troops. Residents have spent the last three months prepping the soil and planting native perennials to attract pollinators. Whether you’re coming for the yoga session at dusk or just to grab a bite and listen to the bands, it’s a rare chance to see the park transformed into a true town square. Organizers recommend carpooling, as the main lot is expected to fill by noon.
