RAD Days are back

RAD Days are back

Enjoy more than 60 free events and experiences presented by your regional assets. From the seats of Heinz Hall to the newly-updated spaces of Pittsburgh Glass Center, RAD Days will open up dozens of Allegheny County’s regional assets for all to appreciate.

In addition, several RAD-funded attractions will extend their RAD Summer Staycation free-ticket offers into September. Please continue to check RADPass.org for reservations.

Allegheny Regional Asset District

The Allegheny Regional Asset District – RAD – invests in Allegheny County's quality of life through financial support of libraries, parks and trails, arts and cultural organizations, regional attractions, sports and civic facilities, and public transit.

With half of the proceeds from Allegheny County's additional one percent sales and use tax, RAD has invested more than $2.5 billion in our regional assets since its inception. An additional $2.5 billion has gone directly to the County and its 128 municipalities for property tax relief and local government services. RAD is a time-tested solution that works for the economy, for assets, for citizens, for municipalities – for all. RAD works here.
