Payson Park Music Festival

Our 36th Season!!!

The Payson Park Music Festival announces its 36th season of summer entertainment offering musical venues for residents of Belmont and surrounding communities. This summer's season begins Wednesday, June 17th and runs through September 2nd. Concerts start between 6:30pm and 6:45pm. In August, because of the failing light, we begin between 6:00 and 6:15pm.

The Town of Belmont requires that Payson Park Music Festival pay permit fees and carry additional insurance. Our Sponsor donations which pay for the Bands are dedicated to the Band they sponsor. This leaves an opportunity for Town residents to fill in the administrative gap. We hope you will make a donation that is financially comfortable for you. We will list your donation on our website. Thank you for your continued support! Your contributions support programming for the concert season!

We look forward to continue bringing music to the community, and we look forward to seeing you at the park!

Payson Park Music Festival is a
501(c)(3) organization.
