The City of Port Colborne is bringing live music back to the waterfront this summer with the return of the 2026 Community Concert Series at H.H. Knoll Lakeview Park.
The free concert series runs from June through September and features tribute acts and crowd favourites, including shows celebrating Queen, The Beatles, Tom Petty, and Stevie Nicks.
Organizers are once again encouraging concertgoers to bring cash or non-perishable food donations for Port Cares, which is marking its 40th anniversary this year. Donation bins will be set up at every concert.
New this year, pre-show activities will begin at 6 p.m. with food vendors and outdoor games ahead of the 7 p.m. concerts.
The City also says attendees aged 19 and older will be allowed to bring their own alcohol to the designated concert area under updated municipal rules.
