Community Event - Niagara - Fonthill Bandshell Concert Series 2024
The Fonthill Bandshell Summer Concert Series launches its 18th season June 20 with sassy R&B artist Dawn Tyler Watson.
Once again, the volunteer selection committee has reviewed more than 300 options for this year to bring together an eclectic mix of live entertainment to Peace Park, in downtown Fonthill, every Thursday evening from June 20 to Sept. 5.
The 2024 lineup features 12 performances, including original and tribute acts, from Celtic-country fiddling and your favourite ’80s mix tape, to entertainers performing the hits of Taylor Swift and Bruno Mars. Original award-winning artists are also in the mix, including Dawn Tyler Watson, who counts 6 Maple Blues awards and a Juno to her credit; Alex Pangman, a Juno nominee for her vocal jazz stylings; and the seven-piece powerhouse, soul-filled roots rock band Bywater Call, who also count numerous Maple Blues Awards nominations to their credit. Tributes this year include No Sugar Tonight, for the Guess Who and BTO; Hungry Hearts Band tribute to Bruce Springsteen; and for the July 18 Summerfest offering, Forever Young, a tribute to Rod Stewart.
Sponsorships help make the series possible, by offsetting the cost of a professional sound system and musician fees. Other costs are covered by donations made each week during the concerts. Donations can be made by e-transfer at any time to fonthillbandshelldonations@gmail.com.
Each Thursday evening concert begins at 7 p.m. Free parking is available in various locations, and once again the Thursday evening experience will be combined with the Town of Pelham’s Summer Chill Market, and the Pelham Farmers Market.
