In the heart of one of our city’s most appreciated parks, the community gathers to enjoy a long-standing tradition of outdoor live music and food truck rally on six different occasions each summer. Hundreds of lounge chairs and blankets are scattered around the park to enjoy the atmosphere in countless ways. Family-friendly music brings all walks of life together and spectators are encouraged to bring their furry friends as well.

The goal is to provide artists with while providing a safe performing arts experience for audiences of locals and visitors alike.
