Description

Calendar event image

Gather in the park for a line up of local bands! In an effort to bring high quality and diverse live music performance to Harvard Square, Grendel’s Den has produced a series of music festivals in Winthrop Square, known as Park Sounds. This free, boutique music performance highlights local musicians, and has been held during the summers on a monthly basis from 2015 through 2022. This year, Grendel’s Den is bringing the event back in cooperation with the 617 Day Block Party.

This event is sponsored in part by the Cambridge Plays grant program. The purpose of Cambridge Plays is to encourage people to enjoy our vibrant commercial areas. The Community Development Department partners with local businesses and nonprofits to provide free outdoor activities across the city. For more information, visit: www.cambridgema.gov/plays.
