Summer evenings along the Union River are about to get a little more musical. The Grand’s popular Waterfront Concert Series returns this July and August, bringing eight free outdoor performances to Union River Harbor Park in downtown Ellsworth.

Concerts will take place on select Fridays at 6 p.m. and feature a variety of local and regional musicians. Guests are encouraged to bring a chair, relax by the water, and enjoy an evening of live music in one of Ellsworth’s most scenic public spaces.

The 2026 lineup includes:

🎵 July 10 – Chris Ross
🎵 July 17 – Em & Company
🎵 July 24 – Hymn For Her
🎵 July 31 – On the Rocks

🎵 August 7 – The Crown Vics
🎵 August 14 – Boy Scout
🎵 August 21 – Jessi & the Rhythm Kings
🎵 August 28 – Keith Lewis

In the event of inclement weather, concerts will move to the following Sunday at 4 p.m. A big thank you to The Grand for continuing to bring live music and community gathering opportunities to Ellsworth. Whether you’re a longtime resident or visiting for the summer, these concerts are a great way to enjoy our waterfront, support the arts, and spend an evening in The Friendly City.
