About Celebrity Care Fest

The 7th annual Celebrity Care Fest is the area’s largest and most exciting charity extravaganza! Hosted by the HM3 Independence Fund within the beautiful grounds of a Pine Township home, Celebrity Care Fest is going to be a packed weekend of awesome performances while raising money for UPMC Children’s Hospital Foundation. This star-studded event is a “once in a lifetime opportunity to enjoy up-close and personal big-stage performances” from legendary musical acts. Past performers include Peter Frampton and also Chicago!

Friday night’s headlining act includes Rock and Roll Hall of Famers Pat Benatar and guitarist Neil Giraldo. Known for hits “Hit Me With Your Best Shot,” “Heartbreaker,” and “Love Is a Battlefield,” they are going to rock Celebrity Care Fest like never before!

Saturday’s headlining act features the legendary Smokey Robinson. Enough said. The iconic singer is known for so many amazing songs: “Tracks Of My Tears,” “The Tears Of A Clown,” and “I Second That Emotion.” Just to name a few. This is going to be insane.

Later that night, another huge superstar headliner will be performing! Visit the event’s website to find out who!
