Cornwall, Ontario – As the summer heat begins to embrace the city, residents of Cornwall and its surrounding areas can look forward to a vibrant and lively series of outdoor concerts known as Arts in the Park. Set against the picturesque backdrop of Lamoureux Park, these free concerts are a celebration of local talent and a wonderful opportunity for families and friends to come together and enjoy an evening of music and entertainment.

Located at the Lions Club Bandshell, Arts in the Park has become a beloved tradition in Cornwall, drawing music enthusiasts and community members alike. The event takes place during the summer months, providing residents with a regular dose of live performances and creating a festive atmosphere in the heart of the city.

The diverse lineup of artists and activities promises something for everyone. From Barstool Prophets frontman Graham Greer on Thursday, July 6th, to Castles on Tuesday, July 18th, and The Shiners on Thursday, August 17th, attendees can expect a wide range of musical styles and talent throughout the season. Other highlights include a movie night on Thursday, August 24th, Canada Day celebrations, and a Karaoke Party with Rodney Rivette’s Rockstar Productions, ensuring that Arts in the Park 2023 has plenty of excitement in store.

The organizers of Arts in the Park encourage attendees to bring their own chairs, blankets, and picnic baskets to make the most of their experience. With the enchanting melodies of their favorite local musicians and performers filling the air, there’s no better way to spend a summer evening. The concerts are scheduled to begin at 7:00 pm, unless otherwise stated.

However, there are a few guidelines to keep in mind. To ensure the comfort and safety of all attendees, smoking, vaping, and drinking are strictly prohibited in the park during these events. For those who wish to bring their furry friends, dogs are welcome but must be kept on a leash.
