Hear Lincoln, the weekly outdoor concert series that was set in downtown Lincoln between 2011 and 2015, is returning to Tower Square, 13th & P, beginning Aug. 4. The nine-week season will run every Friday through Sept. 29, from 5 to 7 p.m. each week.
The series returns through a partnership between Hear Nebraska and KZUM and is presented by Downtown Lincoln Association.. The family-friendly concerts are free to attend.
Following a year off in 2016, Hear Lincoln, which was previously held over the lunch hour, is shifting to its new time based on the success of Hear Grand Island, a similar series held in the evening. The concerts offer an opportunity for audiences to connect with a diverse lineup of bands that contribute to Lincoln’s arts community and culture, including performers of folk, country, funk, indie, hip hop and more.
The series will wrap up with a special show on Sept. 29 during the second night of the Lincoln Calling music festival, on the Night Market Stage, located on 14th St., from O to P.
KZUM is proud to partner in bringing this excellent series back to the community.
