Rock the Park Concert & Movie Series 2018

What better way to enjoy being in nature this summer than a concert and movie series right in the heart of several of our beautiful parks across the city!? Sit back, relax and enjoy family and friends while grooving to music or watching a movie on a big screen. This summer we have a great lineup of awesome bands and family-friendly movies for everyone to enjoy. Both activities are free and open to the public!


We’ll have food vendors on site with food and drinks available for purchase. We’d suggest bringing your favorite lawn chair or blanket to set up for a night at the park. And just a reminder, no alcohol or smoking is allowed. Here is a full list of the upcoming concerts and movies that are scheduled for this summer:
