Join the Middlesex Concert Band for a relaxed summer evening of music on the Common in Wakefield, on the shores of Lake Quannapowitt.

Pack a blanket or a couple of lawn chairs and settle in by the water for an evening of patriotic favorites, marches, and Broadway and big-band classics — featuring vocalist April Foley. And the fun doesn’t stop when we do: stick around afterward for Wakefield’s free outdoor movie night on the Lower Common, screening Disney’s Tangled.
