As one of the very first efforts from Burlington City Arts in 1981, the Free Concert Series has become a tradition in Burlington’s Battery Park for young and old, residents and visitors. The concerts take place on four consecutive Thursdays at the height of Lake Champlain’s summer and feature regional musicians.

Mark your calendars for these dates if you enjoy a good concert. This year’s lineup includes Needtobreathe, The Smittens, Back Door Slam, Cannon Fodder, Tift Merritt, The Eames Brothers, Matt Costa, and Sara Grace and the Suits.
