Downtown Danville Kicks Off 2026 with First Free Summer Concert

The beloved summer concert series returns for 2026, with our beautiful downtown square setting the stage for the opening night on Friday, May 15 from 7–10 p.m. Join us downtown for a family-friendly evening of rock ‘n’ roll featuring Indiana-based band, The Time Travelers.

From the classics of the Beatles and The Rolling Stones to hits by Aerosmith and Jimmy Eat World, this high-energy performance will take you on a musical journey through the decades. It’s a concert you won’t want to miss.

While enjoying the music, be sure to explore the incredible local restaurants around the square. As an outdoor event, guests are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and blankets to relax and enjoy the show in comfort. Ample free parking is available on the square, as well as in public lots located to the east, south, and west (View Parking Map).

Support the Series: Become a Sponsor

Providing free, quality concerts for our community is only possible through the support of generous sponsors. While these events are free to attend, they require significant resources to bring great music, staging, lighting and a welcoming experience to Downtown Danville.

As a nonprofit organization, the Downtown Danville Partnership relies on sponsorships to keep this beloved tradition going strong. By becoming a sponsor, you’re not only supporting local events, you’re investing in the vibrancy and vitality of our downtown.
