Waverly Place’s Summer Music Series wraps up June 25 with a live performance by North Tower from 5:30–8:30pm. Bring a blanket or some chairs and settle in for a laid-back evening in the park. Wine and beer will be available on-site, and restaurants nearby make it easy to turn the night into a full outing.
This isn’t sponsored (we’d let you know if it was). We just think summer nights deserve good music and a cold drink. (Just so you know: Sponsored content in our newsletter is always marked with “*”).
