Live entertainment is slowly making its way back to venues across the Mon Valley. 

With many bars and restaurants operating at nearly full capacity and occupancy limits being relaxed for indoor and outdoor events, musicians are picking their instruments back up and are ready to perform. 

On Wednesday, the Westmoreland County Bureau of Parks and Recreation announced the start of two free summer concert series at Twin Lakes and Cedar Creek parks. 

The concert series will kick off Memorial Day at Twin Lakes Park in Latrobe. 

Each free show is open to all ages and will feature local musicians and bands. Guests are encouraged to bring blankets or lawn chairs. 

Pets are also permitted to attend, as long as they remain on a leash. 

Cedar Creek Park

Concerts at Cedar Creek Park will be held at the Amphitheater. All events will take place on Sundays, and the schedule is:

• June 13 – Sky Maestros, 4 p.m.

• June 27 – Catfish Creek Revival, 4 p.m.

• July 11 – Fred Adams, 4 p.m.

• July 25 – Pittsburgh Big Band Legends, 4 p.m.

• Aug. 22 – The Townsmen Plus One, 4 p.m.

• Aug. 29 – Wally Gingers Orchestra, 4 p.m.

The Cedar Creek Park Amphitheater is located on Evergreen Drive through the main entrance of the park. Cedar Creek Park is located in Rostraver Township off Route 51, one-quarter mile north of I-70.
