2024 Lincoln Summer Nights - a season to remember!
The 2024 season of Lincoln Summer Nights came to an end in October. This year’s series brought back favorites like Circus Bella, our inflatable archery set, our FREE cotton candy provided by park staff and refreshing lemonade provided by the Wa Sung Service Club. We were able to offer so many amazing organizations a free community table and provide an opportunity for community performers to entertain. We also added fun competitions with fabulous prizes contributed by Council President Fortunato-Bas including: The Price is Right Chinatown edition and Karaoke singing competitions.
What’s next: We’re not sure if we’ll be able to host at the park in the same way in 2025 as it will depend on the City’s construction timeline. Stay tuned for project updates as we may need to move locations and modify our programming!
Thank you to the hundreds of people who came out each month to connect with others and have fun. Lincoln Summer Nights would not be possible without the support of our generous supporters.
