originally published: 07/03/2024


(WEST WINDSOR, NJ) -- Central Jersey families don't need to head to the shore in order to have a great time this summer. The Mercer County Park Commission's $5 Friday Summer Concert Series promises memorable experiences for residents of all ages.

As the sun sets, families can bring out blankets and chairs for a fun and relaxing evening on the expansive Festival Grounds of Mercer County Park in West Windsor.

$5 Fridays kick off on July 12 and run through August 23. Concerts begin at 6:30pm. Parking at the concerts is free, and children 12 and under will be admitted free of charge.

A talented lineup of performers offers music from a range of genres and decades, meaning that everyone can find an act that they’ll enjoy.

“Families in and around Mercer look forward to the Summer Concert Series each year,” said Mercer County Executive Dan Benson. “It’s been a priority to keep these performances affordable so that they’re accessible to any Mercer County family that wants to join in the fun.”
