From late June through August, Nay Aug Park in Dunmore, Pennsylvania, transforms into a lively hub for music lovers and outdoor enthusiasts alike. The Summer Concert Series offers a unique blend of local culture, fresh air, and community spirit. Set within the park’s forested edges and open spaces, the series invites visitors to enjoy live performances where the canopy above rustles in time with the beat.

The park itself stands firm, its wooded trails and natural ravines holding steady as music rolls over the landscape. Concertgoers gather on the lawn, alert to the whispering wind and the murmurs of Nay Aug Creek nearby, which seems to punctuate the music with its steady flow. The soundscapes merge—the chirping of crickets daring you to stay through the evening and the occasional splash where the water meets stone, pushing forward like the drive of the performers on stage.

Planning your visit? The concert area is accessible via paved paths, making it welcoming for families and casual visitors, while nearby wooded trails offer a chance for a brisk walk before the show. Timing your arrival just before sunset allows you to settle in with light fading over the surrounding treetops, where the colors deepen but the temperatures soften.

For practical preparation, bring a blanket or portable chair, bug spray, and water bottles, especially as summer evenings can cool suddenly but the humidity stays active. Footwear can stay casual but consider something with grip if you want to explore the park’s varied terrain before or after the concert. Parking is available close by, but arriving early is advised to claim the best space.

Nay Aug Park’s Summer Concert Series isn’t only about the music — it’s about engaging with a space that’s fiercely itself, where natural elements like the creek and the ever-present trees create a setting that challenges and complements the human performance. Here, adventure and relaxation meet; the event promises a practical yet exciting evening that resonates long after the last note fades.

Bring your curiosity, your respect for the environment, and a spirit ready to appreciate a concert experience grounded in place and season. From packed picnics to casual strolls, the series offers an accessible way to spend summer evenings in Dunmore, recharging body and mind with sound, scene, and a strong dose of local energy.
