Patio season is officially here, and that means the return of live, outdoor, FREE entertainment at Parkville Market! Connecticut’s favorite food hall is excited to announce the 2025 dates for its signature Salsa Under the Stars and Summer Concert Series.

Salsa Under the Stars

Grab your dancing shoes and get ready to dance the night away! Salsa Under the Stars brings DJ Bombero to Parkville Market from 7-11PM on five Fridays this summer:

May 30 (special appearance by DJ Nervioso!)
June 20
July 11
August 8
September 12

Each evening begins with a beginner-friendly salsa lesson led by Joey Salsa con Huertas that is perfect for first-timers or anyone looking to brush up on their moves.

Parkville Market extends its gratitude to Modelo, proud sponsor of this year’s Salsa Under the Stars.

“Modelo is proud to support Salsa Under the Stars and Parkville Market’s mission to celebrate community, culture, and music,” said Stephen Mills at Modelo. “It’s events like these that bring people together, and we’re thrilled to be part of it.”

Summer Concert Series: More Music, All Summer Long

Back and better than ever, the Parkville Market Summer Concert Series triples the live music lineup with performances three nights a week from June through September. Join us on the Summer Stage for:

Acoustic Acts (Thursdays, 6-9PM): Relax and recharge with laid-back acoustic sets, perfect for dinnertime listening.
Fiesta Fridays (Fridays, 7-11PM): Start your weekend with a dance party hosted by some of the city’s top DJs.
Rock the Patio (Saturdays, 7-10PM): Catch live performances by local artists and bands, spanning a variety of genres.

“Patio season is our favorite season at Parkville Market,” said Ashley McHugh, Director of Events, Programming, and Marketing. “We’re proud to celebrate and elevate local talent in a safe, inclusive space everyone can enjoy.”

In the event of inclement weather, performances will move indoors unless otherwise announced.
