Founders Day
Each August Lansdale celebrates its establishment, honors its achievers, spotlights its artisans, cranks up the music and parties all day — with a car parade and STEAM! Check this year's schedule!
Cruise Night
Each September we roll out our hot rods and roadsters, and relive those fabulous days of youth when we cruised the streets of Lansdale. We'll have fun, fun, fun, till Daddy takes the T-Bird away!
The historic Freight House
In 2016 Discover Lansdale purchased the stately stone structure that had been our industrial gateway since the early 20th century and remains a Borough landmark.

Founders Day happenings

Lansdale's biggest day of the year, Founders Day, is just ahead. Mark your calendars: August 24, all day, all around town! This year's celebration honors Lansdale's Park System, in memory of longtime Parks and Recreation chief Carl Saldutti. The theme: "Relax. Play. Swim"

We've just posted an early peek at the schedule (subject to change). So visit our Founders Day page and start planning what you're going to visit and when -- and be sure to leave time for the spectacular Fireworks Show that caps the evening around 9 pm!

The 2019 DL
Biz Directory
is available!

Get your copy of the 2019 edition of our Business Directory, available all around town!

The Directory will be available at all of our  First Fridays of the season, including June 7th's International Food Fest. The feature subject this year is the bumper crop of barbers around town, and the long history of tonsorial parlors in the borough.

But the real purpose is to make you aware of the many great shops and services Lansdale has to offer -- and to encourage you to always Shop Lansdale First!

So keep the book close at hand, and refer to our online listings and interactive map often!

If your favorite isn't in the Directory, please show them the book and let them know they should be in it. Remember, we will happily list any business in the borough's boundaries FREE! 

Work goes on at Freight House restoration site

Volunteers gathered twice in April to continue work at Lansdale's historic Reading Freight House. More dates will be scheduled in the coming months.

Removal of the wood-and-concrete floor is just about complete. Much of the scrap wood has been cut and removed by the Boy Scouts for firewood.

The exterior deck and old crane hoist are gone, to make way for the Liberty Trail that will be going along the back of the building this summer. The deck's stone piers, made of the same stone as the building, were saved to be reclaimed. The brush and ivy growth on the back wall have been cleaned out.

With demolition nearly complete, we are looking for a contractor interested in getting involved in helping build this great project. If you have any suggestions, please let us know.

And mark your calendars for Saturday October 26th at the Freight House, for the Lansdale Oktoberfest and the return of the Frachthaus Zer0.5K. This is a fun fund raiser for the freight house.

The old wood flooring is still available for sale each work day. We have in varying lengths at $6 per foot. All income goes right to the restoration fund, and it's great Lansdale historic wood for all sorts of projects.

We'll be buildling benches out of some of the reclaimed wood, and making some available for sale to benefit the project.
