The 2024 Summer Concert season begins on Sunday July 14 for 7 weeks through Sunday, August 25. The Summer Concerts are sponsored by the University City Parks Council and held on Sunday evenings at Standley Park, at the new Standley MS Pavilion Stage on Governor Drive, from 5 to 7 PM.
The Standley MS Pavilion Stage located adjacent and near the Standley MS parking lot on Governor Drive. It sits in the southeast corner of the grassy area on the Little League field third base outfield. Standley Park is a fun and family friendly venue with playground and large grassy area.
Bring your friends, family and neighbors … and your dancing shoes. Come early with your chairs, blankets, umbrellas, and picnic dinners. Enjoy the evening with friends and neighbors in University City.
For those with limited mobility, we suggest parking on the south side of Governor Drive between Standley Pool and Radcliffe. There is a paved sidewalk just east of the baseball backstop on the third base line that leads to the Standley MS Pavilion Stage. There is tree-shaded seating available under the trees by the Standley Middle School parking lot.
Please note: Concert music is loud; the sound is amplified and projected with speakers located close to the stage. The Summer Concerts are subject to cancellation due to inclement weather.
