Powered by Astound Broadband, the series celebrates music, culture, and community, starting on July 26.

Each of the shows happen at different outdoor venues around town.

The first concert features Monmouth Taiko, a high-energy Japanese drum ensemble performing at the Newport Performing Arts Center on Saturday, July 26 at 1 p.m. Known for their powerful rhythms and cultural artistry, the group has captivated Pacific Northwest audiences for over two decades.

A two-part sunset concert is slated for Friday, August 8 at Don & Ann Davis Park. Space Neighbors will take the stage from 7 to 8:30 p.m. with a retro-funk blend of danceable beats and improvisational flair. Tyler Spencer follows at 8:45 p.m. with his signature didge beat fusion, a solo performance weaving live didgeridoo into self-produced electronic rhythms.


Guests aged 21 and over are invited to enjoy the performance from the Allred Patio, located across the street and hosted by The Allred Hotel, which is offering its outdoor viewing space for concertgoers.

The concert series concludes Thursday, August 28 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. with The Tsunami Zone, a local favorite known for their upbeat renditions of timeless classics. The final show will also take place at Don & Ann Davis Park.
