Let’s get this party started: Programs on Shore Thing

June 20, 2025

There’s a new rhythm on the river, and it’s coming from Shore Thing.

This summer, Riverlife’s floating platform just off Allegheny Landing is more than a place to grab a bite and take in the view—it’s a destination designed to move you. Literally.

We’re kicking things off with a lineup of fitness classes, yoga sessions, and live music events designed to energize your summer. Whether you’re a seasoned yogi, a novice body-weight exerciser, or just someone looking to catch a few songs under the skyline, Shore Thing is your front-row seat to the vibrancy of Pittsburgh’s riverfronts.

Live Music
From laid-back acoustic sets to DJ-spun dance beats, music is central to the Shore Thing experience. Keep an ear out: programming rotates weekly, and there’s always something fresh floating your way.

Fitness & Yoga
What’s better than a workout with a view? Join us for riverside yoga flows and heart-pumping fitness classes, all set against the backdrop of the Allegheny and the Sister Bridges. Bring your mat, bring a friend, and leave recharged.

Art & Creative Workshops
We believe in the power of creativity—and we’ll be adding new opportunities for hands-on art experiences throughout the season. Whether you’re painting, building, sketching, or stringing Capiz shells (stay tuned), this platform was made for creative play.

Gatherings & Pop-Ups
From community dinners to cultural celebrations, we’re working with partners across the region to bring people together on the water. Shore Thing is a space where connections happen—over shared meals, shared movement, and shared stories.

And the best part? It’s all open to the public. No ticket required to enjoy the platform.

As the summer unfolds, so will our schedule. So if you haven’t yet, sign up for Riverlife’s newsletter and follow us on social to stay in the loop. We’ll keep the calendar updated, the music playing, and the good vibes floating.
