The free outdoor concerts are on Wednesdays in Yakima's Randall Park through Aug. 5; plus July 9 and Aug. 6 in Toppenish's Railroad Park and July 23 in Wixson Park in Selah. Each show begins at 7 p.m.

Audience members are encouraged to bring blankets or chairs for comfortable outdoor lounging while listening to classical, jazz, Broadway tunes and marches. Each performance concludes with a medley of patriotic favorites.
