SEPTEMBER 4-6 RIVERFRONT PARK & CITY ISLAND
HARRISBURGPA.GOV/KIPONA | #KIPONAHBG WHAT IS KIPONA? This annual Labor-Day weekend celebration began in 1916 when the Harrisburg Dock Street Dam and the iconic river steps were completed. To celebrate this achievement and other improvements made since 1902 through the City Beautiful Movement, the City decided to rebrand what had been a water carnival on the river in prior years. After soliciting names through a city-wide competition, “Kipona” was chosen. An analysis of the name Kipona, which is said to mean in North American Indian terms “on sparkling water” is translated to “Na” meaning “to be on,” “Po” meaning “waters” and “Ki” meaning “sparkling or bright.
