There is an exciting schedule of entertainment planned at Martin Park in Sturgeon Bay this summer! From family-friendly movies under the stars to live music concerts that will get you tapping to the beat, residents and visitors can enjoy the offerings starting on June 6th.

“It is a good sense of community and enjoying the outdoors and getting out in the park a little bit,” said Municipal Services Administrative Assistant Colleen DeGrave, who helps plan the events, “this is just a good way to get people out and active in the summertime by doing something enjoyable such as watching a movie and listening to concerts.”

Hosted by the City of Sturgeon Bay Parks and Recreation Department, attendees can bring a chair or blanket for Movies at Martin Park on Fridays. Movies will begin at dusk. Snacks are allowed to be carried in, but as a reminder, no glass containers are permitted. In the event of unforeseen weather, the movie scheduled for the evening will be cancelled. There will be no showing for July 4th.
