Scarborough Beach Weekender
This isn’t just any concert, it’s an experience. We’re transforming Scarborough Amphitheatre into a vibrant oasis where music, beach vibes, and good company come together.
Picture this: the stage positioned right on the sand, with the stunning ocean and sunset as the perfect backdrop. From the moment you arrive, you’re greeted with a laid-back atmosphere featuring plenty of bars, speciality drink options, and a handpicked selection of food vendors. Dining and lounge areas invite you to relax and settle in for an unforgettable afternoon.
The music kicks off early in the afternoon, giving everyone time to find their perfect, spot, grab a cocktail, and soak in the live tunes by the beach. As the sun sets and evening approaches, you’ll be able to enjoy a picnic hamper or bottle of wine while you bask in the magic of the coast, culture and connection coming together.
And as night falls, the headliners take the stage, bringing high-energy performance, singing, and dancing it’s the perfect way to cap off a day spent by the ocean.
