Nightfall concert series celebrates its 25th anniversary




The Nightfall Concert Series begins its 25th year of free summer musical programming for 18 weeks straight, running May 3 through August 30. One major difference this year is that there will be no break during the summer schedule – a first for Nightfall.

Presented and produced by Chattanooga Presents, Nightfall will continue to bring an eclectic mix of rock, blues, soul, world music, funk, bluegrass, and folk music to downtown Chattanooga. Following the 7 p.m. local acts will be the 8 p.m. headline performances by national and international talent. 

Beer, wine, food, and non-alcoholic drink concessions are available on site. No outside food or beverages are allowed.
