Free music, summer nights, and great neighbors — Concerts on the Green returns June 21

The Village of Frankfort’s beloved Concerts on the Green series is back for 2026, bringing free live music every Sunday evening to Breidert Green in historic downtown Frankfort. Pack a blanket and plan to stay a while.

If there’s one Frankfort tradition that Heritage Knolls families look forward to all year, it’s Concerts on the Green. Every Sunday evening from June through August, Breidert Green transforms into an open-air venue where neighbors spread blankets, share picnics, and enjoy live music under the summer sky — all completely free of charge.

The 2026 season runs from June 21 through August 30, giving residents ten Sunday evenings of music in the heart of downtown Frankfort. Whether you’re a longtime regular or attending for the first time, it’s one of the easiest and most enjoyable ways to spend a summer evening close to home.

Breidert Green sits at the corner of Kansas and White Streets in the heart of historic downtown Frankfort, just a short drive from Heritage Knolls. Arrive a little early to find a good spot, especially on busy evenings when the green fills up fast.

“Concerts on the Green is everything that makes Frankfort special — good music, great neighbors, and a warm summer evening together. We hope to see every Heritage Knolls family there this season.”

— Rachel McKay, President, Heritage Knolls HOA
