City Island Skyline Sports Complex and Volleyball Courts

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.
