For me there is something almost magical about a concert in the park. I just love the casual atmosphere, the fresh air, the picnic dinner, and, of course, the entertainment. While the timing of an outdoor concert means bedtimes are postponed and sometimes that means a meltdown on the way home, I find it totally worth it! If you haven’t yet attended or just can’t get enough, be sure to mark your calendar for the remaining outdoor concerts of the season!
Here is a list of the cities in our area - but there are many others in between and further away. My family has a goal of attending at least one concert in each location!
