The year 2026 will mark the 250th anniversary, or Semiquincentennial, of the founding of the United States of America. As Pennsylvanians, we celebrate not only our nation's birth but the significant role our state has played in our nation's history.
Join PCN as we journey towards this momentous event and look back on the people, places, and events that have carved Pennsylvania's history over the past 250 years.
PCN has joined forces with America250PA to commemorate 250 years of American history in Pennsylvania! Watch PCN's coverage of the celebrations leading up to 2026. Learn more about America250PA.
