The Naperville Park District will host a series of free children’s shows this summer on Tuesdays, alternating between north and south locations.
Dave Rudolf, also known as “The Children’s Comedian,” will open the series at noon on Tuesday, June 18, at Frontier Sports Complex amphitheater, located near the east entrance of the park at 3415 Book Road.
Each of the children’s entertainers in the summer lineup will present a fun, interactive and high-energy show for kids and people of all ages. Parents and children are encouraged to pack a lunch, bring a blanket and sunglasses, and enjoy the performance and the summer weather.
All shows begin at noon and last approximately 45 minutes (with the exception of the July 9 and July 30 performances, which start at 11:30AM with a pre-show by the Élan Dance Company). Three shows are located at the Riverwalk near the Grand Pavilion at 500 W. Jackson Avenue and three will take place on the east side of Frontier Sports Complex at 3415 Book Road.
These free events are made possible through sponsorships by local merchants. The summer line-up is as follows:
- June 18 – Dave Rudolf (Frontier Sports Complex)
