Good Morning Chester County,

We hope that watching the Eagles win on Sunday was enough to make up for the fact that you had to spend the rest of your day shoveling snow.

Each passing day with low temps in the single digits reminds us of just how much those first few days of early spring weather will feel like heaven.

Until then, bundle up…we’ve got events to get to!

This is what we’ve got on tap:

• Don’t Miss the Burning Bird

• Churro & Oliver looking for homes

• +25 other ChesCo events happening this week to keep you busy

🦅 Snow Won’t Stop The Birds

We think Rob McElhenney (from “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia”) said what everyone was thinking after this weekend’s game:

Last week, we asked you where you prefer to watch the Eagles: At home or at a restaurant/bar.

We learned a couple things (and had some good laughs):

First: The majority of us like to watch the game in our comfy clothes at home

Second: There are some of us out there that, for the safety of others, choose to stay home for fear of harming TVs that may not be yours or people that may not understand your…passion.

However you like to watch, it’s safe to say that we’re all enjoying this playoff run.

🔥 A Reminder For Firebird Fest!

One of the area’s most unique annual events is coming up on February 1st!

The Phoenixville Firebird Festival typically takes place right before the new year; however, due to the burn ban that was in effect the event had to be rescheduled.

This local favorite is in it’s 21st year of celebrating local arts, and I promise you, it is an event you won’t regret attending.

Good vibes all around, great music, and you get to watch a 20 foot statue lit aflame…what’s not to like?

We’ve got more info below in our featured events section!

The Featured Pour

A closer look at the standout events happening this week

This week’s featured event is the Phoenixville Firebird Festival

When: Saturday, 2/1/25

Where: Veteran's Memorial Park, 192 Mowere Road, Phoenixville, PA 19460

What to expect: The Phoenixville Firebird Festival is one of the most unique events throughout the Philly suburbs, and it’s something locals look forward to all year. This annual celebration honors Phoenixville’s namesake with a massive 20-foot-tall wooden effigy that takes three months and countless hours of community effort to build.

The festival is all about art, culture, and the cycle of life and renewal. It’s a chance to come together, celebrate creativity, and enjoy amazing performances, local crafts, and delicious food. Thousands of people show up each year to be part of the magic. Best part? It’s completely FREE to attend!
