The Parsippany Summer Concert Series is back, and it kicks off on Thursday, July 16, 2026 at Veterans Memorial Park on Route 46 in Parsippany. Gates open at 6 p.m. and the music starts at 7:30 p.m., with free admission, food trucks, games, and amusements that turn each show into a full family night out.
The free series is presented by the Parsippany Recreation Department and runs on select evenings through the end of August. Every date pairs a live band with food trucks and activities for all ages, so it works just as well for a casual dinner on the lawn as it does for a night of dancing.
When and where
All seven concerts take place at Veterans Memorial Park, 1839 U.S. Highway 46 in Parsippany. Gates open at 6 p.m. and bands take the stage at 7:30 p.m. Admission and parking are free, so bring lawn chairs or a blanket and arrive early for a good spot. Pets are not permitted, and if the weather turns, the township will announce an alternate location.
