The City of St. Augustine is ready to kick off another great season of Concerts in the Plaza, St. Augustine’s free summer-long music series, returning to the Plaza de la Constitución on Thursday, May 29 with many past favorite bands and several new ones.
The series includes 14 weeks of two-hour concerts held every Thursday from 6:00pm to 8:00pm, starting May 29 and continuing through August 28. The earlier start time allows concertgoers to enjoy the performances in the sunlight and have ample time to support local businesses after the show. For complete information visit www.CityStAug.com/Concerts
St. Johns County (SJC) residents who have registered their vehicles with the City of St. Augustine program through ParkStAug enjoy discounted parking throughout downtown in city-managed parking lots and spaces. At the Historic Downtown Parking Facility (HDPF), located at the St. Augustine Visitors Information Center, (SJC) residents pay only $3 per entry. For those not registered and who are not SJC residents, parking is $20 per entry, or $5 per entry after 5:00pm.
Free shuttle transportation from the parking garage to Cathedral Place, adjacent to the Plaza, is available on the STAR Downtown Circulator, which operates daily from 10:00am to 10:00pm.
Concerts may be cancelled or postponed due to the weather; however, it will likely be a last-minute decision, due to the unpredictability of Florida’s summer rain showers.
If a concert is cancelled, the public will be notified on the city website at http://www.citystaug.com and on Facebook at www.Facebook.com/CityStAug. If there is not an announcement posted, then the concert will continue as scheduled.
