Summer is here and it’s that time again! OC Parks 2014 Summer Concert Series begins on June 26th…and the line up looks fabulous!
I love the longer evenings, later kid bedtimes, picnics in the park, and listening to GREAT live music. And the best part about this concert series? It’s FREE! Including parking. Score!
There are 10 concerts in all, including fantastic performances at Craig Regional Park, Mason Regional Park, Irvine Regional Park, Mile Square Regional Park, and Bluff Park at Salt Creek Beach.
