HOT SPRINGS NATIONAL PARK, Arkansas — As Martha and The Vandellas famously sang in 1964, they’ll be dancing in the streets in downtown Hot Springs again this June.
The fourth edition of the Spa City’s Bridge Street LIVE series of free public concerts will fill the Bridge Street Entertainment District with fun every Thursday evening in June.
Once again, the concerts will encompass a variety of music, ranging from country to New Orleans brass to R&B to dance music.
“Bridge Street LIVE is right around the corner, and I can't wait,” Visit Hot Springs Special Events Manager Alexis Hampo said. “We have some incredible bands lined up who are sure to make everyone want to dance.”
This year’s lineup:
• June 6 — The Dance Street Band
• June 13 — The King Cabbage Brass Band
• June 20 — Texas Hill
• June 27 — Manhattan
“Bring your lawn chairs, pets and dancing shoes to the best block party in the city,” Hampo said. “It's completely free to attend and the best way to spend a Thursday night in Hot Springs for sure.
“Bridge Street LIVE started in 2021, and it just seems to get bigger and better every year.”
Each Thursday the entertainment district will open at 5 p.m., and the free concert will begin at 7.
There is no admission charge, and lawn chairs are welcome. Pets are allowed if on a leash. There will be games, sprinklers, music and food.
“Sounds like a perfect Hot Springs' block party to me,” Hampo said.
