Tune Up the Parks

The Tune Up the Park Concert Series is back with live performances all summer long! Join the Town of Essex and the Arts, Culture and Tourism (ACT) Committee for a celebration of local musical talent.

All shows are free and start shortly after 7:00pm. Be sure to bring your own chair or blanket.

New for 2023, the ACT committee is excited to partner with the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada – Windsor Centre to add ‘Sidewalk Astronomy’ to select Tune Up the Parks event dates. Telescopes will be available for children and adults to experience telescopic views of the moon and other astronomical objects.

2023 performances are scheduled to take place in Colchester on Mondays.

Cancellations and rain date(s) will be announced on the Town’s Facebook page.
