Evansville Coffee Shop Creates Fuchsia Fest Frap

Evansville Coffee Shop Celebrates Fuchsia Fest With a Limited-Time Drink

Fuchsia Fest is taking over Evansville this weekend, and one local coffee shop is getting in on the fun with a drink made just for the occasion.

If there are two things I can get behind, it’s supporting local music and trying a fun coffee drink.

Fuchsia Fest is happening this weekend, September 25 and 26, at STAGEtwo in Evansville, and ahead of the two-day music and art festival, Penny Lane Coffeehouse is showing the festival some love in a pretty sweet way.

Fuchsia Fest has been named Penny Lane’s Music Artist of the Month for September, and they even created a special drink to celebrate.

Meet the Fuchsia Fest Frap

For the entire month of September, Penny Lane is offering the Fuchsia Fest Frap alongside its other fall drinks.

It’s a raspberry mocha blended drink with a bright fuchsia color, topped with whipped cream, chocolate drizzle and glittery red sprinkles.

So, yes, it definitely fits the name.

The collaboration is also a cool way to shine a light on Evansville’s local music scene. Fuchsia Fest has grown into a two-day festival featuring alternative, hardcore, emo, indie, shoegaze, punk and more.

Fuchsia Fest Returns This Weekend

Fuchsia Fest takes place Friday, September 25, and Saturday, September 26, at STAGEtwo, located at 321 N. Congress Avenue in Evansville.

This year, the festival features more than two dozen bands, along with artists, vendors and a food truck. Some of the artists featured at the festival have even had their work displayed at Penny Lane.

The festival originally started in 2020 with a group of friends who simply wanted to play music together. It has since grown into an annual event that brings musicians, artists and fans together while supporting the local and regional music community.

If you want to see the full Fuchsia Fest lineup, ticket information and everything else you need to know before heading out this weekend, we already broke it all down for you.

So whether you’re heading to Fuchsia Fest this weekend or just want to celebrate Evansville’s local music scene with something sweet, you’ve got two ways to do it catch a few bands or grab a Fuchsia Fest Frap. Or, obviously, do both.
