Mt. Morris Jamboree Free
Friday Night Concerts on the Campus
Our season of free live music on the bandshell in the center of town on our beautiful and historic Campus has come to an end! We had 15 bands scheduled for Fridays, and 3 more on Saturdays during the Annual Straw Sculpting Competition in August. Despite inclement weather on two of the concert nights, we had a season attendance total of 10,285 for 12 concerts! That's an all-time high for the Friday Night Jamboree Concert Series! The largest attendance for a single concert was on August 8th featuring The Fortunate Sons, a CCR Tribute, with 1,300 attendees! Thanks to one and all who attended, and we're looking forward to the next series starting in June of 2024!
