The popular annual event, formerly known as the Lebanon 50+ Festival, returns Thursday, October 9, 2025, when the Aging Your Way Festival will take place at the Lebanon Expo Center, kicking off at 10:00 a.m.
“We’ve rebranded and revamped to create a more exciting and interactive experience for everyone who is aging. We offer fun, information and ideas especially for seniors and their families,” said Cynthia Gartman, Festival Chair.
“We aren’t just our age,” added Vice Chair Stacia Mohr. “We are so much more than a number. We are thriving, unique individuals with a variety of interests and ideas. Our festival engages those who society defines as ‘seniors’ and challenges them to show the world what aging really means – the next exciting chapter of life!”
The rebranded Aging Your Way Festival aims to benefit all those interested in participating in their own Aging Journey plus their families in the Central PA area, providing an exciting and informative day for all ages. Whether you’re looking to connect with local organizations, enjoy live entertainment, have fun or learn more about health and wellness, this year’s festival promises something for everyone
