Down by the Riverside is Rochester Civic Music’s annual summer tradition of FREE concerts on Sunday evenings in Mayo Park behind the Mayo Civic Center.
These concerts are such a great time for Rochester residents…kids can run around, friends can gather for a picnic, and families can kick back and relax.
This year’s line-up is amazing and we cannot wait to chill under the tall, tall trees of Mayo Park and listen to some GREAT Music!
