The Summer Music Series at the HCA is back starting June 30 with the Kick-off concert featuring local favorite Hot Acoustics, sponsored by Phipps Insurance/MAPFRE Insurance and the Barbara Corbett Memorial fund. 

 Then every Friday and Saturday night through July 29 join us in our outdoor amphitheater from 6:30–8 p.m. for one of ten amazing bands in our line-up, sponsored by Dell Technologies. So, put on your dancing shoes, grab a lawn chair, blanket, and a picnic basket, and join us for a night of rockin’ good music! (In the event of rain or extreme heat, concerts will move inside to our air-conditioned theater).

Larry Joe’s New England Fire Pitwill be our featured food truck for the summer music series and our friends at Wine Empire in Ashland will have wine and beer for purchase. Bringing your own alcohol is strictly prohibited. 

Through the generosity of ALL our sponsors and local town cultural councils from Milford, Holliston, Ashland, and Southborough, these concerts are on a pay-what-you-can basis.
