2026 Summer Concert Series at Rock Springs Nature Center

Get ready for the Rock Springs Summer Concert Series!
Mark your calendars for another season of incredible music in the great outdoors! Our annual Summer Concert Series, sponsored by Stifel Investment Services, returns on May 31. Whether you love the twang of a banjo or the soulful groove of “rustbelt soul,” there is something for everyone. Grab your lawn chairs, pack a picnic blanket, and join us every other Sunday for a relaxed evening of live entertainment.

- July 26 – Back Porch Trio
- This acoustic, easy listening trio performs lots of favorites spanning several genres, including folk, rock, and country.
- August 9 – Harlem Hayfield
