It’s hard to top fall in Happy Valley, Pennsylvania. As the leaves turn color on Mount Nittany, the students return to the campus (welcome back!), and we gear up for those magical football Saturdays, there is a sense of energy and adventure that is pure, unadulterated fun.

If you love that fall feeling, Happy Valley is calling. From football tailgates against a vibrant autumn landscape to weekend-long retreats perfect for strolling, shopping and snuggling by the fire, it’s the coziest place to be. When you want to warm up with a beverage or a hearty meal, you’ll find a range of spots that promise both comfort and flavor.

There are plenty of things to still do in August at the Mount Nittany Vineyard & Winery! Play some Bingo, Hand-Paint a Mason Jar, or enjoy a night of Flights and Bites!

The Downtown State College Improvement District (DSCID) and the Borough of State College are excited to announce a special initiative aimed at invigorating the downtown area following a challenging construction season.

Celebrate community and authentic local flavor with live performances on July 21, 25, 27, and 28 at Elk Creek Cafe & Aleworks. Enjoy great food, great ale, and original music in Millheim's beloved brewpub.

Visitors to Happy Valley should get excited about all the small-venue live music available, in addition to the big shows at the Bryce Jordan Center or in Beaver Stadium. Travelers might be surprised to know that the live music scene here is bigger than meets the eye, with great local and visiting acts at venues in many #HappyValleyPA communities.

“There’s no limit. We go over the top, every time,” said Kitchen Manager Kevin’s when I asked if there could ever be a dish that was too much, too extra, or too extravagant to be considered for State Burger Co.’s Restaurant Week offering.
