Town Supervisor Ciaran Hanna today announced the return of Perinton’s free summer concert series, featuring performances at the Perinton Amphitheater and Kennelley Park Gazebo. These family-friendly concerts showcase top local talent and are made possible through partnerships with Wegmans and the Fairport Public Library.
“There’s no better place to experience live music than right here in the Town of Perinton,” said Hanna. “Our summer concerts are more than just an opportunity to hear great music – they’re a chance to celebrate what makes our community so special. Whether you’re with friends, family, or discovering a new local band, these free concerts bring people together in a way that only music can. We’re thrilled to offer another season of top-notch performances in our beautiful outdoor spaces and look forward to seeing you there.”
