Summer Sundays On The Green: East Haven Concert Series Returns June 18

EAST HAVEN, CT —The popular Sunday Night Concert Series on the Green is back!

"I am thrilled each year to see it return, but also to have it expand this summer," East Haven Mayor Joseph A. Carfora said. "It's a wonderful opportunity for our community to come together, enjoy great music, and most importantly each other's company."

This year's lineup promises to be among the best yet, Carfora said, with a mix of "fan favorites and exciting new acts." He noted that some bands were chosen by popular demand via social media, "a first for our town," he said.

Held weekly on Sundays from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., on the Town Green, the series kicks off June 18.

The East Haven 2023 Sunday Night Concert Series on the Green lineup includes:

June 18: The Brothers Doobie
June 25: The Mediums
July 2: The In-Laws
July 9: The Heavy Hitters
July 16: One Way Ticket
July 23: Senior Discount
July 30: Gun St. Revival
August 5: A Saturday, it's "Senior Day" with Jukebox 45 from 12 noon to 3 p.m.
August 6: East Haven's "Afesta" with entertainment from LLiguri and Prima Vera
August 13: Signature Band
August 20: The Rum Runners
August 27: Raise Your Hands (Bon Jovi Tribute Band)

The special Afesta set for Aug. 6 was added, Carfora said, due to the popularity and success of our Neapolitan night.

"Our Neapolitan night is always one of the most popular events in this series. So, adding to it with the Afesta is an exciting way to not only honor it, but all to inject some new tradition into our summer lineup. We can celebrate our town’s rich Italian heritage, enjoy Italian music, food, and a festive atmosphere."

More details about the East Haven Afesta will be coming soon.
