Long before its founding Williamsport was host to countless visitors from American Indian travelers,

to fur traders, to settlers passing through. With its location along the river and the eventual opening of

the canal and railroad, the Town's history was built on welcoming travelers and guests. Music, dance,

sports, recreation and fun are our tradition. Take in one of our many events, enjoy one of our dances,

and stop in to listen to one of our concerts. Whatever you do, you will soon discover that Williamsport

is historic fun!
