Overview of the 2025 Concert Series
A Historic Venue in the Heart of Town
The concerts are held at the Kutztown Park Band Shell, nestled at 440 E. Main Street. This charming outdoor stage has been part of Kutztown’s landscape for generations, hosting everything from music to community celebrations.
Summer-Long Schedule
Performances are spread throughout the summer, with evening shows that offer something different each time. It’s not just one weekend — it’s an ongoing event that gives people a reason to come back again and again.
Free Admission for All
No tickets needed — every show is free. This makes it easy for anyone to attend, whether you’re walking over with the family or meeting friends after work. The focus is on bringing people together, not on selling out seats.
Bring Your Own Seating
There’s covered seating at the amphitheater, but most attendees bring their own lawn chairs or blankets. Spreading out on the grass with a group or relaxing solo with a snack is all part of the charm.
Rain or Shine
Unless the weather is dangerous, the show goes on. Concerts happen rain or shine, so even a few drops of rain won’t stop the music. Come prepared, just in case.

Arrive Early
For the most popular shows, like The Fabulous Greaseband, it’s smart to get there early. It gives you time to find a good spot, settle in, and maybe enjoy a bite before the music starts.
What to Bring
Pack lawn chairs or a picnic blanket, and if you’re planning to stay for a while, bring some snacks, water, and maybe even bug spray. Comfort is key when you’re out enjoying a summer night.
Stay Updated
Things can change, especially with weather. The Borough of Kutztown’s website is the best place to check for any schedule changes or new event announcements.
