After more than a year of shutdowns, the City of Costa Mesa will host a Concert in the Park on Saturday July 31 featuring live music from three amazing bands, gourmet food trucks, a beer and wine garden, kids’ activities and fun for the entire family.

The event will begin at 1 p.m. at Fairview Park and at 5 p.m., the headliner band Tijuana Dogs will take the stage.

“Saturday’s event will have something for everyone, three bands with the Tijuana Dogs headlining, activities and give-aways for kids, great food, beer and wine for adults. and even a rib eating contest,” said Mayor John Stephens, who spearheaded the event. “An event like this has been a long time coming in Costa Mesa. That time is Saturday!”

Additionally, the City has made it easier than ever to walk, bike, scoot or skate to the Concert by installing a temporary two-way cycle track on the west side of Placentia Avenue from Fairview Park to Victoria Street and placing delineators in the bicycle lane buffers on both sides of Placentia Avenue from Adams Avenue to Fairview Park.

Temporary bike racks will be provided by the Costa Mesa Foundation.

Fairview Park is located at 2525 Placentia Ave. For more, visit costamesaca.gov/citp
