The stage is set for an expanded Music in the Park season!
Concerts will run every Friday evening until Aug. 25 from 6:30 to 9:00 p.m. in the beautiful setting of the Annette Beaudreau Amphitheatre at Memorial Park at 3737 Old Okanagan Highway. We will take just one short break on Friday, July 7 for the great line-up of Westside Daze concerts that weekend and then be back on July 14 to continue our concert series every Friday to the end of August.
Music in the Park will kick off June 23 with headliner Locarno, the Latin project by Juno Award-winning musician Tom Landa. Locarno brings a compelling blend of Mexican, Cuban, and North American music to the stage.
