Nightfall organizers will resume free live shows for the 34th season of Chattanooga’s outdoor concert series in Miller Plaza.
The start date of June 4 represents a one-month delay from the regular May kickoff, but the season will still include 15 Friday night shows.
Performances will take place 7-9:30 p.m.
The first night of Nightfall will serve as the finals for this year’s Road to Nightfall local band competition and feature three groups. The winner will earn a cash prize and the chance to perform a longer set on a date later in the season.
The remaining three shows in June also will highlight local talent by including a co-bill of two Chattanooga acts each night:
June 11
Ben Van Winkle and The Figment
Emily Kate Boyd Band
June 18
Rick Rushing
Davey Smith
June 25
PrinceT
Ogya
