The Rockin‘ the River concert series sponsored by Luzerne County will return along the riverfront this July, county officials announced Thursday.

The series starts Friday, July 16, and will take place the following two Fridays after that. Last year, the event was canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic and the organizers hosted a parade concert in certain towns.

This year’s Rockin’ the River will include three free concerts in the River Common park along the Susquehanna River by the Luzerne County Courthouse.
