Bergen County Executive Jim Tedesco, the Board of County Commissioners, and the County Parks Department announce the return of the Bergen County Movies and Music in the Park Summer Series. The series will feature 24 events at four locations across Bergen County beginning on July 10, 2024. All concerts and movies are free and open to the public. Attendees are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and/or blankets for viewing.

Five of the summer concerts will be held, in partnership with the Borough of North Arlington, at The Stage at Riverside County Park–South, the county’s newest community performance space.

“We are thrilled to bring back the Movies and Music in the Park Summer Series, offering our community a chance to enjoy free summer entertainment in our county park system,” said County Executive Jim Tedesco. “This year, we’re especially excited to host our first-ever movie nights at Pascack Brook County Park, enhancing our summer tradition with new venues and experiences.”

"We are excited to welcome back movies and concerts in the park this summer, which promises to be our best yet with a diverse lineup of performances across multiple venues," said Commissioner Steven Tanelli. “I am especially excited about the events scheduled for the second time at Riverside County Park–South, which is hosted in collaboration with the Borough of North Arlington. The new amphitheater is the perfect place to enjoy a summer concert and demonstrates our continued commitment to enhance our park system for the benefit of all Bergen County residents.”
