Music in the Park

The Hopkins Business & Civic Association proudly brings Music in the Park to Downtown Park (16 9th Ave S, just south of the clock tower) every summer.

A large crowd in lawnchairs watch a concert under a bandshell

The fife and drum contingent of the 1st John Philip Sousa Memorial Band kicked off the 2010 season under the clocktower.

Music In The Park concerts are fun for the whole family. This is an annual tradition in Hopkins that keeps getting better every year.

Music in the Park concerts are free, compliments of area businesses and organizations. Bring lawn chairs or a blanket—refreshments always available. The rain location is the Hopkins Activity Center (33 14th Ave N).
