The Friday Night Concert Series at Yards Park is already underway for the summer, so there’s no time to waste. Grab a blanket, claim your spot on the lawn, and enjoy the live music of an eclectic mix of local bands now through the end of August when the NAVY Band wraps up the season.

A couple of days after Independence Day on July 6th, come to Yards Park to soak up the tunes of the Jimi Smooth Band, who plays Americana folk rock. Then on July 27th, join the bluegrass party when Trailer Grass Orchestra Takes to the stage. August promises performances by rock band Practically Einstein, pop group Party Like It’s, and La Unica, a band that delivers a unique blend of Celtic and Latin rock. After the concert, head to one of the restaurants within walking distance or grab some food from the on-site vendors during the show.
