RIVERFRONT PARK CLASSICAL CONCERT SERIES 

BRINGING BACK CLASSICAL MUSIC TO ORO VALLEY

ORO VALLEY RIVERFRONT PARK CLASSICAL CONCERT SERIES

Select Sundays at 4 PM
October 23, November 20, February 19, March 12

The Town of Oro Valley and the Southern Arizona Arts and Cultural Alliance have partnered to bring classical music to residents since 1997. The Oro Valley Riverfront Park Classical Concert Series supports some of the finest classically trained musicians  with the opportunity to perform monthly in the community’s largest outdoor amphitheater.  

Concerts begin at 4PM outdoors at the grass amphitheater of Riverfront Park in Oro Valley. Attendees are encouraged to bring a blanket or chairs. Food will be available for purchase from food trucks onsite.

Why?

The series is anticipated to draw hundreds of attendees monthly back to the Riverfront Park to experience classical music at the base of the majestic Pusch View Mountains, a setting like no other in Southern Arizona.  In a partnership with the Town of Oro Valley, this program impacts economic development, while providing community exposure to the arts, and supporting local musicians.
