Celebrating the event’s 20th anniversary, Colonie, NY, unveiled the lineup for this year’s Tuesday Nights in the Park Concert Series.

Colonie, is a town of about 80,000 people nestled at the north end of Albany County. Besides having many beautiful parks, including the Crossings<\/a>, a 130-acre passive park with miles of biking and walking trails, and numerous historical sights, Colonie is home to the annual Tuesday Nights in the Park Concert Series at the Cook Park Frank A. Leak Amphitheater.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The free concert series captures the attention of locals every year, with performances often bringing in crowds that fill out the on-looking field with an array of multicolored lawn chairs and blankets. This year’s series is particularly special, with it being the 20th anniversary of the first Tuesday Nights in the Park show in 2004. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 2024 series boasts a lineup of performers that play a wide variety of musical genres, ranging from New Orleans cajun blues to Celtic to soul. From originals in unique genres to classic covers, there’s bound to be something for everyone in this year’s setlist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Funded entirely through sponsors, benefactors and individual patrons, Tuesday Nights in the Park is a true Colonie community event. In the words of Colonie Village Hall, “During the summer, Tuesday nights in Cook Park are alive with music, laughter, dancing, and community camaraderie.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Food and refreshments will be sold on-site by Mike’s Hot Dogs, and bathrooms are available in the nearby Cook Pavilion. In the event of rain, shows will be held on the following Wednesday in the same location, weather permitting. For any questions regarding the series, the Colonie Family Recreation Center<\/a> can be contacted at (518) 218-7782. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
