Neighborhood Night concerts are your go-to spot for free live music this summer!  For nearly 40 years, Urbana Park District has showcased incredible local musicians in parks across the community.  Grab your friends, pack your chairs or blankets, bring a picnic dinner and settle in for a relaxing evening outdoors.

Each park features a different performance, with genres ranging from folk and soul to rock and bluegrass – so there’s always something new to discover in a beautiful park setting.

Each Neighborhood Night features: the very best local musicians, free popcorn & lemonade, fun activities, community resources and the chance to meet District and city officials and talk t them about your neighborhood park.
