Lake Park Friends has announced the exciting lineups for the 25th season of its popular Musical Mondays series and the family-friendly Wonderful Wednesdays series, along with details of a special opera performance. The announcement was made on Wednesday and has music enthusiasts buzzing with excitement.
The Musical Mondays series, which first launched in 1998, has revived the tradition of free concerts in Lake Park that began in the late 1800s. This year's season will feature an eclectic mix of musical styles, including jazz, bluegrass, Irish, Latin-influenced, R&B, New Orleans, folk, opera and everything in between. Shows will take place every Monday from 6:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Lake Park Summer Stage near the park playground. Admission is free.
The 25th season of Musical Mondays is a special occasion for Lake Park Friends, and the organization is grateful for the support of Milwaukee County Parks, the series sponsors and its many dedicated volunteers.
In addition to the Musical Mondays series, Wonderful Wednesdays will also take place throughout the summer, providing fun, family-friendly entertainment for all ages. No matter if you're a jazz fan, a bluegrass aficionado, or simply looking for a fun night out, Musical Mondays and Wonderful Wednesdays provide an opportunity to enjoy the beautiful scenery, great music, and wonderful company at Lake Park this summer.
