Independence Riverview Park

05/22/2026

Summer nights are back at the Riverview Park Amphitheater.

The River’s Edge Summer Series returns June 26 through August 28 with live music, movies in the park, vendors, tribute bands, and evenings by the river you won’t want to miss. From ABBA and AC/DC to Stevie Nicks and Taylor Swift tributes, this year’s lineup is packed with something for everyone.

We’re also bringing back Movie in the Park nights with Wild Robot on June 26 and Hoppers on August 28, both free to attend. Concert nights kick off with openers at 6:00 p.m., followed by headlining acts at 8:00 p.m. Admission is $10 at the gate, or save a little time and money by purchasing $8 pre-sale tickets online before each event. Online ticketing also makes it easy to plan and pick your night in advance.

Grab your lawn chairs, bring your friends, and join us for another unforgettable summer at Riverview Park.
