On a vibrant evening in Central Park on June 19, the Naperville Municipal Band Big Band took the stage, captivating the audience under the skillful direction of Tracy Oliver. Concerts continue Thursday evenings through August 14 and are free to attend.
Next up, the Naperville Municipal Band promises to fill Central Park with lots of laughs during a concert titled “Comedy Tonight” beginning at 7:30PM Thurs., June 27.
Then the big blast of real live cannons will punctuate the Independence Day tribute at 7:30PM Thurs., July 3, a longstanding musical tradition that began at the request of Mayor Chester Rybicki back in the 1980s. Cannons will accompany the 1812 Overture as well as Stars and Stripes.
All concerts in Central Park provide opportunities for BYO picnics, snacks and other take-out menus available at downtown eateries.
