5 Fun Things To Do In Bucks County This Weekend

BUCKS COUNTY, PA —It's Father's Day weekend. And as a father, this weekend is a great time to treat Dad right.

While family barbecues are great —and so are presents of course —there are so many fun events this weekend where Dad can unwind and enjoy some fresh air, good food, and everything Bucks County has to offer.

And while next Wednesday marks the federal holiday of Juneteenth (my birthday!!), some communities are getting a jump on celebrations honoring the African-American community. Others will hold their events on the following weekend.

Doylestown will celebrate Juneteenth with an event Saturday at the Mercer Museum. Two others are planned for next weekend.

If it's music you want, then Music Off Main is the main place to be in Yardley on Saturday. Or check out the "Destination to Soultown" show in Bristol Township on Saturday. Then there is a group that's banded together for a good cause this weekend.

Summertime also means car cruises and car shows. There's a great car show in Langhorne this weekend too. (Check out the information below.)

These are some of the fun events taking place in Bucks County this weekend:
