Ligonier PA, Fort Ligonier Days, Fallingwater and the Laurel Highlands are packed with history, fall color, incredible architecture and delicious ways to explore!

On this week's Tonight's Destination with The Fun Chasers, we're heading back to Pennsylvania's beautiful Laurel Highlands, but this time we're exploring Ligonier with Kelli Brisbane, Director of Partnership Development at GO Laurel Highlands.

And our timing couldn't be better! Fort Ligonier Days returns October 9–11, 2026, bringing three days of history, reenactments, crafts, food, live entertainment, a huge parade and plenty of fall fun to one of Pennsylvania's most iconic small towns.

We talk about the history behind Fort Ligonier, a reconstructed French and Indian War fort originally built in 1758, and why the fort remains such an important part of Ligonier today.

But there's a LOT more to discover.

Kelli takes us into downtown Ligonier and its famous Diamond, and we even talk about Ligonier's appearance in the new Hershey movie about Milton Hershey.

Then we're off to discover the incredible Frank Lloyd Wright architecture of the Laurel Highlands, including the world-famous Fallingwater, along with the Wright homes at Polymath Park and the unique TreeTops dining experience.

And because this is The Fun Chasers, we're also finding some delicious ways to explore! We talk about the Laurel Highlands Pour Tour, Ice Cream Trail and Coffee Trail, giving you plenty of reasons to eat and drink your way through the region.

Whether you're planning a Ligonier weekend getaway, visiting Fort Ligonier Days, exploring Fallingwater and Frank Lloyd Wright architecture, chasing fall color in the Laurel Highlands, or simply looking for another great Pennsylvania small town to discover, we've got plenty of ideas for your next trip.

From historic forts and Hollywood connections to iconic architecture, mountain scenery, coffee, ice cream and local pours, Ligonier and the Laurel Highlands have a little something for everybody.

And that's exactly what we love about discovering a destination.
