2017 Heinz Field Kickoff and Ribs Festival

The Pittsburgh Steelers and Heinz Field invite you to the 2017 Heinz Field Kickoff and Rib Fest! For five days, Art Rooney Avenue will be bustling with vendors, games, rides, and more all day long. The FedEx Great Hall of Heinz Field will be open for fans to view the team’s Super Bowl trophies, Hall of Fame Museum, Steelers memorabilia, and the new Terrible Towel Wall throughout the festival.

And don’t forget: Pitt Panther football is back! Pitt takes on Youngstown State in their season opener at Heinz Field on Saturday at 1:00 p.m. The annual Steelers 5k Run and Walk is hosted Monday around Heinz Field and the surrounding streets. Proceeds benefit the Art Rooney Scholarship Fund.

Bring your Steelers pride and appetite to celebrate the kickoff of Western Pennsylvania’s favorite tradition! Event information and a full schedule of events can be found here. Admission to the festival is free.
