Interested in Performing?
The City of Antioch appreciates your interest in performing in our summer concert series. For years, Antioch has fostered community engagement by providing a fun-filled event that connects friends and families across generations. Over time, our concert series has grown to be hosted at two locations throughout the city: Waldie Plaza in our historic Rivertown and at Prewett Family Park located next to the Antioch Water Park. In addition to our summer concerts, Antioch Recreation Department hosts a variety of large-scale community events that are elevated by the sound of music. From holiday and cultural celebrations to family summer events, we are always looking for new or established bands and djs to entertain residents.
