The extremely popular and free outdoor concert series will begin on Thursday, July 2nd and run through Thursday, September 10th. All concerts start at 7pm and are held in Ober Park on Vashon Island. Enjoy live music performances from today’s top talent in rock, folk, reggae and blues performing against one of Vashon’s most beautiful outdoor backdrops. Plus there will be a night of Shakespeare in the Park.

Bring the family!  There’s plenty of grass and natural burms to spread out those picnic blankets and enjoy some wonderful music on a warm summer night.  Families can come relax, let the kids play on the playground and enjoy the entertainment at these summer events.

Thursday, July 23rd, 7-9pm:  Shakespeare in the Park: Much Ado About Nothing

Love is the victim when lies are the weapon. Young and innocent, Claudio and Hero’s love is put to the test when the Duke’s wicked brother, Don John, decides to stir up trouble. When her innocent cousin is slandered, Beatrice leaps to Hero’s defense and enlists the aid of Benedick, her rival in wit and a friend to Claudio. Loyalties are tested in this comedy of love, betrayal, and redemption.  Directed by Amelia Meckler and brought to you by GreenStage.

Concerts in the Park are presented by the Vashon Park District and curated by Vashon Events.   If you’ve never experienced the warmth of community at the cool nights of summer concerts in the park, you’re in for a special treat.
Please remember that there are no dogs allowed at Ober Park. Alcohol and smoking are also not permitted.
