Oil Heritage Festival Parking

Welcome to the Oil Heritage Festival in Oil City, PA!

As we gear up for an exciting celebration from July 24th through 28th, we understand that parking can be a concern. We encourage everyone to approach their visit with patience and optimism.

During the festival, we recommend arriving a little early to secure parking. There are several parking areas (listed below) conveniently located near the festival events. Additionally, consider carpooling with friends and family to reduce the number of vehicles searching for parking spaces.

Oil City is a vibrant community eager to welcome festival-goers. As you explore our historic streets filled with festivities, local vendors, and live entertainment, we ask for your understanding and cooperation in navigating the parking situation. Together, we can ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience for everyone.
