BRADENTON -- Free live outdoor concerts take place every Wednesday from February 27 to March 27 at the Historic Courthouse in downtown Bradenton. As a part of Realize Bradenton’s music series of events, each Wednesday’s lunchtime concert will feature a live performance by local musicians. Styles will range from 40’s and 50’s big band to blues and even Sinatra.
Performances on the courthouse grounds will begin at 11:30 a.m. and end at 1:00 p.m. Bring your lunch, or you can purchase a boxed lunch catered by Renaissance on 9th. Each week Realize Bradenton will partner with The Food Bank of Manatee for a food drive to benefit our community, so please bring a non-perishable food item to benefit the cause. The Historic Courthouse is located at 1115 Manatee Avenue West.
