Beginnings Summer Concert Series — Free Live Music in Downtown Ithaca All Summer

What's Happening
The Beginnings Summer Concert Series brings free live music to downtown Ithaca every week from June 25 through September 3. This is the kind of summer tradition that makes Ithaca worth a recurring visit — not just a one-time stop on a wine trail loop. The outdoor setting in the Commons makes it an easy evening anchor whether you are spending the day at the gorges, browsing the Farmers Market, or winding down a Cayuga Lake tasting room tour.
