2024 Concert Schedule

September 1 - Throwback Collaboration Band - Canceled due to threat of inclement weather

On September 1, Throwback Collaboration Band will be playing your favorite old-School funky music. With the rich melodies they create, you would think they are a group of 12, but they are merely composed of 6 brilliant musicians.

September 8 - The Breakfast Club

The Breakfast Club is the longest running, most recognized ’80’s tribute band in the United States. The group embodies the enigmatic, creative, and buoyant spirit of music and live performances of the original MTV generation of the 1980s.
 

Food

Food and dessert trucks scheduled for September 1 include El Toro Alebrije Tacos and Tapas, Will & Pops, Kona Ice and Lumpy’s Ice Cream.
