Take a drive through Phoenixville Boro on Main Street, north of Bridge Street and you'll see a sign announcing the Firebird Festival which takes place December 8th, 2012, beginning at 4pm. If you look into the adjacent parking lot you will observe a very large majestic bird made out of wood that is the honoree of the big event.
I have been to this festival and there is great music, food and lots of enthusiasm. It is an annual celebration of the borough's namesake - the Phoenix. The locals build a Phoenix sculpture and then set it ablaze after sunset.
So, if you get a chance to go to the festival, it will definitely be a memorable experience.

BTW. It can get quite chilly waiting for the sun to go down to see this ultimate bonfire, so dress warmly.
