PEABODY — Mayor Edward A. Bettencourt Jr. and downtown enrichment collective Peabody Main Streets have announced the return of the city’s annual Summer Concert Series on the Leather City Common.
The concerts are free and will take place on Sundays from 6-8 p.m. beginning on Sunday, July 25. Due to the pandemic, last year’s series was canceled.
“The return of the Free Summer Concerts on the Leather City Common is another happy milestone in our return to normal,” said Bettencourt.
The summer concert schedule is as follows: July 25, The Brian Maes Band; Aug. 2, Lisa Love Experience; Aug. 8, All That 90’s Band; Aug. 15, Tangerine; Aug. 22, Renee and the Renegades; Aug. 29, Road Salt.
Leather City Common is located at 53 Lowell St., across from the Ancient Order of Hibernians (AOH) Hall in downtown Peabody. Ample parking is available on Railroad Avenue and behind the AOH Hall. Food vendors and a craft beer brewer will be featured each week. In the event of rain or other inclement weather, concerts will be canceled.
The Summer Concert Series is sponsored by Bettencourt, the City of Peabody, the Peabody Cultural Council and Peabody Main Streets.
“I am very excited to bring another piece of our community back,” said Peabody Main Streets President Tom Rossignol. “The concert series truly brings families, friends and music together, just another example of the world trying to get back to normal. I am very excited for another step towards normalcy.”
