Friends of the Hampton Falls Bandstand Presents


July 2nd, 6:30 PM
Join the Merrimack Valley Concert Band for a memorable Americana celebration on the town common, where the timeless tradition of community band concerts comes to life in the heart of New England.
The Merrimack Valley Concert Band is a nonprofit community ensemble based in West Newbury, Massachusetts, dedicated to preserving and celebrating America's rich musical heritage. Their performances feature an entertaining blend of patriotic favorites, Broadway classics, jazz, swing, movie themes, and beloved selections from the Great American Songbook—music that brings generations together.
Whether you're spreading out a blanket with family, enjoying a picnic with friends, or simply taking in a beautiful summer evening, our Independence Day concert offers something for everyone. From stirring marches and patriotic classics to familiar melodies that will have you humming along, this cherished community tradition is the perfect soundtrack for celebrating our nation and it's 250th birthday.
Bring your lawn chairs, your family, and your patriotic spirit, and join us for an evening of music, community, and hometown pride. We look forward to celebrating with you!
Experience this slice of Americana ...................authentic, traditional music on a historic town common, and dance for yourself! ....Or just tap your toes....and clap
