One of last summer’s most popular events, the weekly Edgewater LIVE Thursday night happy hour concert series on the water, is returning.

This year’s Edgewater Live season will begin June 11. The concerts run through Aug. 13. The concerts at the Cleveland Metroparks beach will take place from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. In addition to the weekly bands, the evening series will include food trucks, yoga, stand-up paddleboarding, cornhole, adult beverages at a cash bar and family activities – and of course, great beach and skyline views.

That’s not all to be offered this summer, according to Cleveland Metroparks spokesperson Joe Yachanin.

The Metroparks’ Euclid Beach weekly Friday concert series is also returning – and expanding.

“We’re expanding the Euclid Beach series to make it as long as Edgewater,” says Yachanin. “We’re also adding food trucks there this year, too. ” The Euclid Beach concerts will run Fridays from June 12 through Aug. 21, except Aug. 7.
