Weston Summer Concert Series Canceled Due To Coronavirus

WESTON, MA — Weston's annual Concert on the Green series was canceled. The town announced the cancellation on Wednesday — the series was scheduled to start in mid-June. The event was canceled over concerns about the possible spread of the coronavirus.

"The outdoor gathering cannot be conducted in a safe manner, per state guidelines," the town said in a statement.

The series was scheduled to be held at the Field School’s outdoor amphitheater due to the Town Center construction. The ice cream social that follows the event was also canceled.

"The Weston Recreation Department has been in touch with each of the bands in hopes that many can join us for the 2021 season," the town said, "We are also thankful to Cambridge Trust for continuing to work with us to bring you these free concerts."

The Weston Recreation Department is still working with public safety and health officials to determine whether summer camps and the Memorial Pool season will be able to continue this year, under new state guidelines.

"We will do everything in our power to develop the most robust program that will be possible and for the safety of Weston residents," the department said in a statement.
