This weekend, Saturday December 13th is the Firebird Festival in Phoenixville, PA. Every year a large bird, a Phoenix, is built by local artists for the festival, which can be attended by over 10,000 visitors who visit the town for the lighting of the Phoenix.
Phoenixville, which is named after a nail factory from the 19th century, lights the bird which is symbolic from ancient Egypt for rebirth and a new start. Phoenixville which has seen a lot of investment in new homes, new businesses and plenty of great restaurants and micro breweries is a well known destination for visitors to the area.
This year the festival will take place at Reservoir Park, at 601 Franklin Avenue, the bird burns at 8 pm. The bird is 20 feet high and takes three months to build. You can find more photos on Instagram at firebirdfestival.
