Florham Park’s Gazebo Summer Concert Series is back on the Great Lawn, and every show is free. The next concert lands Sunday, July 12, 2026, at 7:00 p.m., when Forever Ray, a tribute to the music of Ray Charles, takes the stage at the Borough municipal complex on Ridgedale Avenue.

Now in its 46th season, the series is one of the longest running summer traditions in town, drawing families, lawn chairs, and blankets to the Great Lawn for a relaxed evening of live music. There is nothing to reserve and no ticket to buy. You just show up, spread out on the grass, and enjoy the show.

The rest of the 2026 lineup

After the July 12 Ray Charles tribute, the Gazebo Concert Series has four more Sunday nights on the calendar, each starting at 7:00 p.m. on the Great Lawn:

  • July 12: Forever Ray, honoring the music of Ray Charles
  • July 19: Take Two, playing hits from the 1960s through today
  • July 26: The Benjamins
  • August 2: Jesse Garron’s Tribute to Elvis
  • August 9: Separate Ways, the ultimate Journey tribute, closing out the season

What to know before you go

Every concert is free and open to the public, and all of them start at 7:00 p.m. on the Great Lawn at the Florham Park municipal complex on Ridgedale Avenue. Bring lawn chairs or a blanket, and arrive a little early if you want a good spot near the gazebo.

Because the shows are outdoors, the organizers ask that you check the series website for concert status if the weather looks questionable, and please do not call the police department for concert information. You can find the full schedule, directions, and sponsor details on the Florham Park Gazebo Concert Series website.
