Enjoying an evening at Washington’s Farmers’ Market is a fantastic experience! Not only do we offer an average of 40 vendors each week, but we also have live music from area musicians from 5:45 – 7pm with the Thursday Night Live summer concert series. From folk to country and even bands featuring some rock and gospel, the Washington Chamber of Commerce highlights Washington’s vibrant music scene with these free concerts held in conjunction with the Farmers’ Market.
Running June – July, the music continues even later into the evening with weekly performances from the Washington Municipal Band. Featuring over 60 members, this traditional municipal band has been a tradition in our community since 1937. You can catch these talented musicians on the bandshell from 7:45 – 8:45pm.
Guests are encouraged to bring lawn chairs, picnic blankets, and anything to keep you comfortable. If it’s Thursday Night in the summer months of Washington, we hope you will join us on the square!
