The forecast at Holliday Park now through September? A summer of groove-tastic activities during Rock the Ruins.

This outdoor concert series is bringing 15 shows to the 95-year-old park with The Decemberists kicking off the fun on Thursday, May 23. Performances include:

  • Band of Horses | June 30
  • Hippo Campus | July 18
  • Charley Crockett | August 18
  • And more

Before you go, look at venue policies, parking details, and upgrades (think: exclusive food and drinks, reserved seats + premium tents). Get ready to rock.
