Summer Concerts
Rock, blues, jazz, and folk! Name the music and you’ll find it at one of our many premiere concerts scheduled throughout the summer. Picnic in the park as you listen to the soulful sounds of Candy Foster, tap your feet to Angie Heaton as you lunch at our new gazebo at West Side Park, or dance to the rocking sounds of Mister Sister during a Saturday night in downtown Champaign. We have a wide variety of talented musicians for you to enjoy for FREE!!
