(Lewiston, NY) – One of my favourite things about summers are concerts and one venue I look forward to every year is Artpark, located in Lewiston, NY – not far from Niagara Falls. Over the years many great bands have played the venue on Tuesday and Wednesday nights throughout June, July and August. In my opinion, it is THE best deal around for seeing great acts at a cheap rate!
The shows used to be free but a few years ago Artpark had to start charging to help with crowd control. But even at the prices they charge it’s still a great deal at $12 – $17 for general admission tickets and $27 to be up close in front of the stage. It usually costs more to see most of the acts who play Artpark at other venues. And even at $5 per car to park at Artpark, you’re still ahead!
Last year we got to see Hall and Oates, Ringo Starr and His All-Starr band, Aretha Franklin, Heart, Sammy Hagar, Styx, 3 Doors Down and more!
This year’s line-up is no disappointment! Check out who’s coming to Artpark this summer:
