BP Adams invites Brooklynites to two upcoming concert series
On Wednesday, Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams invited Brooklynites to join him for upcoming free shows at the Wingate Concert Series at Wingate Park in East Flatbush, which will begin on Monday, Aug. 7, as well as the Coney Island Concert Series held at Ford Amphitheater in Coney Island, which will debut in early September. Adams thanked the organizers of the two series — Globe Star Media-N-Entertainment and City Parks Foundation, respectively — for their hard work on expedited timelines to ensure the well-attended tradition of free concerts at these entertainment venues would continue this season, according to a release from the Borough President’s Office.
“In response to the significant interest we all share in maintaining and expanding the range of free summer entertainment opportunities in our borough, I have been working aggressively to identify and secure new organizers that can deliver great performances at Ford Amphitheater and Wingate Park this season, as well as do even better in the years ahead,” said Adams.
The Wingate Concert Series will kick off on Monday with “Gospel Celebration,” a one-year anniversary celebration of the “Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell” nationally syndicated radio show; there will be several performances.
