The City of Frankfort summer events will continue tonight at Prairie Creek Park on The Farmers Bank Performance Center Stage with the Summer Concert Series, featuring City Lites and Southern Accents.
The entire community has been invited to Prairie Creek Park to relax and rock out with City Lites beginning at 6:30 p.m. and Southern Accents – A Tribute to Tom Petty beginning at 8:30 p.m. tonight.
The City of Frankfort Summer Concert Series is a collection of free concerts and different events for 2024 with intentions to provide local entertainment for community members of all ages to enjoy. All of the summer events are free and open to the public.
Following a vast array of concerts and events throughout the summer, the series has been successful for the city and the community of Frankfort according to officials. Prior to the start of the series this year, Frankfort Parks Superintendent Joel Tatum commented about the kickoff event and the summer events coming to the parks across Frankfort this year.
“Summer promises to be an exciting season filled with an array of activities, including concerts, movies, festivals and a bike race,” Tatum said. “With options catering to all ages and interests, we eagerly anticipate seeing our community come together to enjoy an abundance of wonderful amenities our City has to offer. It’s shaping up to be a memorable season of fun and entertainment for all.”
Community Development Director for the City of Frankfort Kimberly Black has been a driving force in the success of the summer series over the past few years as Downtown TuneNight and the summer concert series have become a staple within the community with options for all community members to enjoy while also focusing on community and economic development by supporting the local businesses in the downtown area.
“The Frankfort Parks and the City of Frankfort work hard to provide great amenities for Frankfort,” Black said. “We’re excited for the Summer Concert Series, the Downtown TuneNights and the multitude of other community events in Frankfort. It’s a fantastic way to enjoy the outdoors, connect with neighbors and experience the vibrancy of our community. Enjoy downtown events and shop in our local businesses. There’s something for everyone.”
