Rock the Block at NewBo City Market!
Rock the Block is NewBo City Market's free weekly concert series. Each summer, a variety of local and national touring bands take the Bankers Trust Stage in the Market Yard and fill Friday nights with live music!
Rock the Block takes place every Friday throughout the summer from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. and is free and open to the public on a first-come, first-served basis. You are welcome to bring lawn chairs and find a space to sit and enjoy the concert!
