Live Music. Big Names. No Tickets.

Free, un-ticketed concerts turn public space into shared space, filled with music, food, and connection. It’s one of Rochester’s favorite summer traditions.

7:00 p.m. | Amateur

This Minnesota-based indie rock band brings shimmering guitars, honest lyrics, and a nostalgic energy that sets the perfect tone for a summer night in the park.

8:00 p.m. | Blind Melon

With their distinctive blend of alternative rock, soulful vocals, and psychedelic flair, Blind Melon became one of the defining sounds of the 1990s. Best known for their chart-topping single “No Rain,” the band continues to tour and create music that bridges heartfelt melodies with an unmistakable groove. Their Riverside debut brings a mix of nostalgia and fresh energy to the stage.
