Community Information Sessions – November Events
As Gettysburg prepares for the nationally significant Lincoln at Gettysburg: Shall Not Perish commemoration and
LIVE on Lincoln Square concert during the week of November 16th – 20th, 2026, Gettysburg Borough will host two
Community Information Sessions to help residents, businesses, property owners, employees, and visitors
understand what to expect and how to prepare.
With event planning well underway, the Borough’s focus is now shifting toward community impacts, logistics, and
preparedness. These sessions will provide practical information about street closures and detours, parking, shuttle
service, pedestrian access, business and residential access, emergency services, event security, and other temporary
changes that will occur throughout the week.
The sessions will also provide an overview of the week’s special programming and an opportunity for members of
the community to ask questions directly of Borough staff and event partners.
