For a rising country-pop artist, there’s no stage quite like the one you grew up watching. That’s exactly the homecoming Nashville-based singer-songwriter Georgia Owen is stepping into this weekend.
Fresh off '09 Honda Tour and release of her single "Denim Dancing Diva," Nashville's Georgia Owen headlines back-to-back live sets in her New Jersey hometown.
Allentown, New Jersey, has been on Owen’s calendar for months. The 13th Annual Allentown Fall Harvest Festival runs October 10–11, 2026, in the downtown district, bringing together craft beverages, local food vendors, and live entertainment. The hub of the activity is the Lions Club Beer Garden, set up behind the Imlay House at 28 S. Main Street.

Owen, who has been steadily climbing the country-pop ranks, takes the stage on both days of the festival, weather permitting. Saturday, October 10, features an intimate solo acoustic set from 2:45 PM to 4:45 PM. Sunday, October 11, she returns with her full band for a high-energy performance from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM.
“Growing up in Allentown, Harvest Fest was always something I looked forward to,” said Owen. “Now that I’m living in Nashville, it’s really special to come home and play for the community I grew up in.”
The hometown shows cap off a breakout stretch for Owen. She has performed at the Barefoot Country Music Fest, the legendary Stone Pony, and logged more than 35 appearances across her extensive 09 Honda Tour. Her latest release, the single “Denim Dancing Diva,” adds another chapter to that momentum.
“I love seeing everyone come together to support local businesses and enjoy live music,” Owen added. “It’s one of those weekends that reminds me why I love my hometown.”
The Lions Club Beer Garden is open to festivalgoers 21 and over, with a valid ID and cover charge required. Offerings include craft beers, ciders, seltzers, and wine, with food supplied by the Hope Fire Company. Proceeds support Allentown Lions Club community projects, student scholarships, and local medical equipment assistance programs.
