What is ComMUnity Fest?  ComMUnity Fest is an opportunity for local businesses, non-profits, organizations, vendors, etc. to directly engage and interact with our nearly 8,000 Millersville University students, faculty, staff.  ComMUnity Fest is the only opportunity community partners have to directly market their products and services to students on MU’s campus at an organized event of this capacity. This interactive community event will take place outdoors on the Student Memorial Center Promenade, an open-air venue in the heart of campus and will feature live entertainment, food, and fun! Rain location will be inside the Student Memorial Center.   

We encourage vendors who participate in ComMUnity Fest to distribute coupons, free giveaways, product samples, and information about services to students who visit your table. ComMUnity Fest serves as a great opportunity to directly introduce your products, resources, and services to first-year students who may be new to the Lancaster area, giving them the chance to make a connection-- not just to the University-- but to your business/organization.
