Evan J. LancasterWith Tuesday, June 15, marking the reopening of California, OC Parks is already gearing up for a summer filled with fun. On Tuesday, June 15, OC Parks announced the return of concerts with the Summer Concert Series, featuring a lineup of 10 weekly concerts happening every Thursday at parks throughout Orange County.
In a statement, Supervisor Andrew Do said it the return of summer concerts and sunset movies will be a nice way to be able to celebrate in person, after more than a year of restrictions.
“These concerts and movies provide a wonderful opportunity for people of all ages to come enjoy entertainment in a beautiful, outdoor setting,” Do said.
In addition to the Summer Concert Series, OC Parks will also be hosting the Sunset Cinema series, beginning June 18 through September 10.
