Outdoor Concerts Making a Triumphant Return for the Summer of 2021 at the Delaware and Maryland Beaches!

The Summer of 2021 is almost here and we're excited to announce that outdoor concerts are making a big comeback this year!

A few venues persevered as best they could last year during the height of the coronavirus pandemic, but this year signifies a big return to one of the best things about the summer in Delaware and Maryland's coastal region.

We have many venues to tell you about this year, some of which you've probably enjoyed or at least heard about before, as well as a couple that might be new to you.

It's a big list and a number of venues, so settle in and look for the ones that appeal to you and your loved ones. Then plan for a great summer here in the coastal region!

We have a lot to tell you about today, so let's get started...

Rehoboth Beach Bandstand (Rehoboth Beach)

If you're in the "Nation's Summer Capital" Fridays to Sundays this summer, be sure to visit the Rehoboth Beach Bandstand at the end of Rehoboth Avenue for a full slate of summertime shows.

These shows are all free to the public and provide a great atmosphere for any beach visit.

Mike Hines & The Look kicks off the 2021 summer season with a show on Friday, June 11, at 8 p.m.
