HAVERFORD – Discover Haverford is excited to introduce their Third Friday events in several of Havertown’s business districts.

“The Third Friday events offer a chance for expanded outdoor seating, live music and extended shopping hours for a fun date night, girls’ night out, or a chance to hang out with your neighbors,” explains Discover Haverford’s Executive Director Jeanne Angell.

The Third Friday event in the Brookline district in May was a big success, and the next event will be held on June 21 from 6 to 9 p.m. in the Oakmont South Business District, with live jazz music provided by the Michael Kaplan Band. The band and the Discover Haverford tent will be set up on Darby Road between House Cup Café and Buona Sera.

Dinner options include a “speakeasy” at Brick & Brew’s event space with special food and drinks, Al Pastor with their new outdoor patio, Buona Sera, The Crossbar, Havertown Pizza, and Sophie’s BBQ. House Cup Café will stay open until 8:00pm offering after dinner coffee and treats.

Several shops in the district will stay open late and will provide special activities, host other vendors or offer discounts. Hendren House will offer 20-50% off storewide and will host local artist Rudy Miller and a candle-making workshop. House Cup will offer a 15% discount on bags of coffee, pods, and tea tins and will host vendors Wee Marie’s Shortbread and What’s on the Table’s focaccia. Brew Your Own Beer will offer beer and wine samples, plus 10% off any beer, wine or cider kit. Havertown Bike Shop will offer free test rides on an electric bike. Mysa Fragrance House will offer a chance to customize your own fragrance. In addition, the Oakmont Fire Company will be open for tours, and will showcase their 1912 fire truck!

In the fall, Discover Haverford will host two more Third Friday events – in the Brookline business district on September 20 th and in the Oakmont Village district on October 18.
