Live at the Hilde celebrates its 10-year anniversary with two concert dates.
Grab your picnic blankets, and prepare for two evenings of fun. The annual outdoor concert Live at the Hilde returns to the Hilde Performance Center this June with twice as much music.
First up on June 7 is Michael Franti & Spearhead and Stephen Marley on their Togetherness Tour. “It’s our 10-year anniversary for Live at the Hilde, and we wanted a special message,” says Patricia McLean, CEO of Sue McLean & Associates (SMA). “Both Michael Franti and Stephen Marley have a great message of love and peace and unity, and we thought it’d be a great fit.”
On June 8, Minnesota’s own rich music scene will be well represented with a lineup including Chastity Brown and Kiss the Tiger, with Dessa as a special guest for headliner Lucinda Williams.
The thousands of expected concertgoers have the choice between three sections, a standing general admissions pit in front of the stage, the general admission lawn—which welcomes blankets and chairs—and the Pond Party Deck, which has its own bar, bathroom and a number of first-come-first-served picnic tables in addition to standing room.
“I want to make mention of what great partners the City of Plymouth has been for 10 years since we started this partnership,” McLean says. “It’s been wonderful in all different departments, not just parks and rec, but police, fire. We just feel like we have such a great partnership in the City of Plymouth.”
