It’s almost that time of year again—as the summer concert season starts to creep up on us, it’s important to remember the best things in life are free. Of course OC Park’s summer concert series which drops a schedule of seriously awesome shows on some of OC’s most beautiful outdoor spaces. OC Park’s annual outdoor Summer Concert Series returns with 10 free concerts at Craig Regional Park, Mason Regional Park, Irvine Regional Park, Mile Square Regional Park and Bluff Park at Salt Creek Beach. Celebrate the summer season with live music, food trucks and friends and family on Thursday evenings June 22 through August 24.
