Rock the Plaza concerts kick off summer fun
Lots of rock ‘n’ roll revelers gathered to enjoy tunes performed by Jimbo Scott & Yesterday’s Biscuits at 6 p.m. Friday, June 5 at Lafayette Plaza as part of the annual Rock the Plaza concert series – the first of three free concerts offered in June. Many audience members dined on picnic items while sitting in chairs or on blankets brought from home, while others simply stood swaying or dancing to the music and kids played games like badminton and jumped rope.
Performances are held Fridays from 6 to 8 p.m. during the month of June (none on June 19), and will feature The Kyle Athayde Dance Party on June 12 and Lamorinda Idol Finalists on June 26.
Presented by the Lafayette Chamber of Commerce, with the help of many other sponsors and partners, including the City of Lafayette, the Rock the Plaza Concert Series is the Chamber’s pre-show for the Lafayette Art & Wine Festival.
