Description
Summer is here and it's time for Castle Hill Picnic Concerts! Concerts feature family-friendly bands performing on Castle Hill’s Grand Allee overlooking Crane Beach. The Fools will perform a special concert on Sunday, July 21 (rain date July 28). The concert will be filmed for a documentary about this iconic rock band recently inducted into the New England Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Bring a picnic blanket or lawn chair and set up on the lawn. While here, explore the gardens, walk the 1/2-mile-long Grand Allee, try a landscape-themed eye spy, picnic, and dance on the grass.
Bring a picnic supper or purchase supper onsite from vendors Beefie Boys or Plat Du Jour and dessert from Down River Ice Cream or Q's Nuts. Mill River Winery, True North Ales, and 1634 Meadery will sell beverages each week. Outside alcoholic beverages are not permitted and parcels will be searched upon entry.
Picnic blankets, lawn chairs, and low tables are permitted. Please no tents, lawn umbrellas, grills, candles, or pets.
Tickets are per car. Advance tickets are strongly recommended. Tickets may not be available at the gate. Weather cancellations, if necessary, are made by 1 pm concert day. Ticket holders will be notified by email and offered a refund (except The Fools on July 21--concert will be raindated to July 28). Check the Crane Estate Facebook page for weather updates.
