Different Things to do in Pittsburgh over the Holidays


Staying in Pittsburgh next week? Maybe you’re a lifelong Steel City denizen, or maybe a recent transplant to the land of Yinz who will be spending Christmas in town. As a Pittsburgh property management company, we’d like to provide our tenants with some ideas of ways to spend this Christmas in da ‘Burgh.

Our eclectic city that’s becoming as notable for robots as it is zombies and Lombardi trophies has just as wide a range of activities this week. Some of them have the holiday spirit. Some do not. One thing’s for sure — there’s something for everyone (at least everyone who’s looking to have at least a little fun) in Pittsburgh next week.

The Rat Pack Christmas
Heinz Hall
December 24–29
It’s the holiday version of Live at the Sands. Celebrating the talent of the Rat Pack, performers will sing holiday tunes (like “Silent Night”) and classic numbers (like “The Lady is a Tramp”) as Sammy, Frank, and Dean.

Harlem Globetrotters
Consol Energy Center
December 26
On the day after Christmas, these classic basketball stuntmen are reprising a big hit from last year as they’re letting fans vote on new rules, including whether one team can challenge another to a “trick shot contest.”

Three Rivers Classic
Consol Energy Center
December 27–28
For those who like their sports with a bit more grit, there’s the second annual collegiate hockey tournament featuring local hockey force on the rise Robert Morris University. The Colonials will be up against Bowling Green, Penn State, and Boston College.

Winter Flower Show and Winter Light Garden
Phipps Conservatory    
The Oakland conservatory is showing a collection of luminous glass artwork, LED lights, and flowers. The display is set among such winter staples as “icicles” and illuminated trees.

The Irony City Holiday Reunion Comedy Spectacular and Benefit
Arcade Comedy Theater
December 21
Enjoy some holiday improvisation from this local comedy troupe that has been performing all over the city for the better part of a decade. It’s laughs for a good cause as proceeds benefit the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank.

And, if you have any Pittsburgh property management needs, we're always in the holiday spirit at Nexus Real Estate!
