We're expecting a big, enthusiastic crowd for this Friday's concert, and we couldn't be more excited! To make sure everyone has a great time, let's all be neighborly and give each other plenty of seating space.

Get Ready for Summer Fun!

We’re thrilled to unveil the 2024 River's Edge Summer Series lineup, bringing you six incredible nights of entertainment from July 12 to August 16 at the beautiful amphitheater in Riverview Park! While you may notice a few changes this year, we’re committed to delivering the same high-quality, affordable entertainment you’ve come to love. To manage rising costs, and support general fund programming, we’ve had to make the tough decision to remove the movies in the park this year. Additionally, there will be a $5 admission fee for the concerts, though children 10 and under can still enjoy the events for free.

Join us for fantastic concerts under the sun and stars, starting soon! Plus, don’t forget to support our local businesses before, during, or after the events for an extra dose of summer joy!
