August 9 Featuring Surreal Deal (70s Jam Band)

The Urbana Park District loves our neighbors so much, we bring a great concert to 11 different neighborhoods each summer. Live, local music is the hallmark of these events. Each park features a different local band, all playing the very best music from blues to 80s hits to jazz and bluegrass. Bring your lawn chair or even a picnic dinner and spend the evening with us.

Each Neighborhood Night features:

  • The very best local musicians
  • Free popcorn and lemonade
  • Fun activities
  • Meet City of Urbana officials and talk to them about your neighborhood
