⚠️ Music in the Junction Canceled Tonight ⚠️
Due to the forecast for thunderstorms, lightning, and the Flash Flood Watch currently in effect, tonight's Music in the Junction concert has been canceled.
The safety of our attendees, performers, volunteers, vendors, and staff is our top priority, and current weather conditions make it unsafe to proceed with the event.
We appreciate your understanding and look forward to seeing everyone back in Railroad Park next Thursday for another great evening of live music in Historic Valley Junction.
