One of the city’s most anticipated summer traditions made its return as 8 Great Tuesdays kicked off its 2025 season at Liberty Park with a crowd-pleasing performance by the Erie All-Stars.

Concertgoers gathered by the thousands on the bayfront, dancing, relaxing, and soaking in the vibrant atmosphere during the first of eight weekly shows.

The night marked the official start of the free Tuesday night concert series, which has become a staple of Erie’s summer entertainment lineup.

With warm weather, live music, and a packed park, it was a high-energy launch to the season, and a reminder of the community spirit that defines this long-running event.

The series continues every Tuesday evening through the summer, bringing a rotating lineup of bands and artists to the waterfront stage.
