'Railcar Stage' goes live at Pybus in June with ribbon cutting, free concert

WENATCHEE — If you’ve been down to Pybus any time recently, you’ve seen folks hard at work on a stage out in the parking lot in front of the Public Market. It’s very nearly ready to go, and the Pybus Foundation is holding a grand opening on the first Saturday in June.

Sponsored by Pepsi and beginning at 3 p.m., the officially-named Railcar Stage at Pybus Public Market will be literally front and center for a ribbon-cutting ceremony followed by a free concert by Wenatchee group Just-US Band.

You can enjoy live music and free refreshments with the community as Pybus celebrates the grand opening and looks forward to many performances throughout the summer and beyond.

“The Railcar Stage is more than just a new performance space,” said a representative from the Pybus Foundation. “It’s a symbol of our commitment to creating a vibrant hub where the Wenatchee Valley community can come together for entertainment, culture, and connection.”

The 2-hour all-ages event is free and open to the public, and marks what may feel like a whole new venue for performances at Pybus. The Market has long held concerts indoors in the center of the concourse and at the Off the Hill Tasting Room, but moving outside will bring a bigger sound to Wenatchee’s waterfront treasure and be perfect for sunny days and evenings.

Pybus wants you to bring the family on Saturday, June 7, from 3–5 p.m. for an unforgettable afternoon of fun, music, and community spirit.
