A perfect day for some block party fun!

The State College Borough hosted its annual LION Bash Thursday night on Allen Street, bringing together members of the State College community and Penn State students for an evening filled with food, games, giveaways, local businesses, and plenty of opportunities to get involved.

With booths spread across three blocks, there was something for everyone to check out. Local organizations, businesses, and community groups came out to share information, connect with the community, and show visitors what makes the State College community so special.

If you missed it, our photographers captured every aspect of the evening! 

Within the three blocks, more than 100 booths were set up for attendees to explore. From Penn State organizations to local businesses, each booth offered something different to see, learn about, or take home.

Attendees could meet people from across the community and learn more about ways to get involved.

The food and treats were another reason to stick around and enjoy the evening.

A magician entertained the crowd with tricks, while Wonder Woman and Chewbacca made their way around the event.

The night also featured live music and performances.

Lots of furry friends came to stop by and see the fun!

With plenty to see and do, LION Bash made for a busy night on Allen Street.
