Music in the Park is an annual summertime series that features live music performances in Veterans Park in downtown River Falls. The newly renovated park offers a beautiful and centrally located setting for folks of all ages to gather and listen to a diverse range of live entertainment. Local businesses help to fund the event by signing up to sponsor a particular Friday concert and volunteers from CAB sell light refreshments during the event with any proceeds going to support the series. This series is CAB's longest running event with it's beginnings predating the existence of CAB.
The 2010 Music in the Park season runs from June 18 though August 29. Join us every Friday evening (except July 9th - see schedule below) from 7:00 to 9:00 PM.
