There is no better place than the Mizner Park Amphitheater for free live music in Boca Raton this summer!
Summer in the City is back for another season of free live music in Boca Raton. The City of Boca Raton hosts this music series each summer at the Mizner Park Amphitheater in Downtown Boca, featuring free concerts on select Fridays throughout June and July.
There is always something to do in Mizner Park, a landmark plaza in Boca Raton. Grab lunch, dinner or check out the happy hour menu at one of the many restaurants, shop for clothing and home decor at the boutiques, or sit back and relax in the promenade surrounded by palm trees and sunshine.
But the real action is found on the Mizner Park Amphitheater calendar. This is where you’ll find information about any Boca Raton event taking place here, like the Boca Raton Seafood Festival, the Boca Street Fest and more.
The state-of-the-art amphitheater can accommodate 4,200 people. It opened in November 2002, and the City of Boca took over operations and ownership in October 2010. It serves as a social, cultural, and educational center for South County residents and draws audiences from throughout South Florida.
I have attended numerous festivals and events here. It really is the perfect venue, providing ample space for vendors, food trucks, brand activations, music, cultural demonstrations and so much more.
