The Town of Boone’s Summer Concerts at the Jones House kicks off in downtown Boone on Friday, June 6. The popular weekly concert series on the Jones House lawn runs weekly from June through August. Showcasing local and regional acts, the lineup features a variety of musical genres that will appeal to all types of music fans – bluegrass, oldtime, jazz, folk, songwriters, and more.
Music begins at 5:30 PM. Concerts are free and open to the public, and they are held rain or shine. Guests are encouraged to bring their own chairs or blankets to enjoy the music from the lawn. Alcoholic beverages are permitted if patrons are of legal age, but no open containers are allowed beyond the Jones House property. Parking is free in downtown Boone metered spaces and lots after 5 PM.
