Every year, the city’s TGIF Concerts in the Parks bring friends, family and neighbors together to enjoy live music at some of our city parks. That community connection and small-town summer vibe are what make the concerts so special. You can see the full band lineup on our website.

This year, we have new security measures in place to follow the latest best practices for large public events. Here are the changes you might notice:

• A low, temporary fence will be put up around the event space, and signs will direct you to entrances and exits.
• There will be multiple entrances to minimize wait times.
• Professional event security guards will do bag checks and use a handheld wand to check for weapons and prohibited items. (Bottle openers, utensils and other picnic items are still allowed.)
• Police officers will be at each entrance to handle any questions that might come up during security checks.

This video shows how the process will work:

The security company handling the checks specializes in large events, so we do not anticipate long delays. However, you might want to arrive a little earlier than normal since this is a new process. We appreciate your patience in advance.
