Harrisburg Hoopla 2026
Get ready, Harrisburg. Hoopla is back on Saturday, June 6, 2026.
Harrisburg Hoopla is a full day of action where friends, coworkers and neighbors team up to take on physical challenges, puzzle games and activities you will not find anywhere else. Each team selects a local nonprofit to represent, allowing them to win money that will be donated directly back to the community.
It is competition with a cause, filled with energy, laughter and connection. At the end of the day, your fun creates real impact. A portion of proceeds also supports the Emerging Philanthropists Fund at TFEC, which helps new leaders strengthen Central PA.
Team registration opens in March 2026.
Sponsorships are now available for companies looking to support Hoopla and connect with players.

This 63-acre island in Harrisburg, PA, and a recreational jewel of the Susquehanna River, is a wonderful place to relax and play while visiting Pennsylvania’s state capital. Catch a baseball game with the Harrisburg Senators at FNB Field. Cruise the water on the Pride of Susquehanna Riverboat. Take a ride on a steam train or a horse-drawn carriage. There are numerous Harrisburg City Island events to suit every visitor. Enjoy miniature golf, arcade games, batting cages, or the beach and beach house. City Island visitors can explore the historic replica of the John Harris Trading Post, located near the marina, and take their children to Harbortown Playground. Also featured are Sand Volleyball Courts, an Outdoor Fitness Area and Skyline Picnic Pavilion. Observation areas and pavilions north of RiverSide Village Park offer a panoramic view of the River and Harrisburg’s skyline.
