About This Festival

The Huntingburg Fourth Fridays is a free outdoor summer concert series held in Huntingburg, Indiana, celebrating community with live music, food, kids activities, and a cash bar, taking place on the fourth Fridays of the summer months: May 23, June 27, July 25, and August 22, 2025. The event occurs at Market Street Park from 5:00 PM to 10:00 PM, is handicap accessible, and is organized by the City of Huntingburg and Destination Huntingburg.

The atmosphere is lively and family-friendly with a mix of local community charm and festive summer vibes. Besides live music, attendees can enjoy food trucks and various games and activities designed for children, including bounce houses. The event encourages bringing lawn chairs or blankets for comfortable outdoor seating, emphasizing a casual, welcoming environment.

A typical schedule for each Fourth Friday includes:

  • 5:00 PM: Event and music start
  • 5:00 PM to 10:00 PM: Live music performances on the Amphitheater Stage or central event area at Market Street Park
  • Kids’ activities—bounce houses, games, and other entertainment—run concurrently with the music
  • Food trucks available throughout the event offering diverse cuisine
  • Cash bar services open during event hours

The event arose from the city’s efforts to revitalize downtown Huntingburg, enhance community engagement, and provide a platform to celebrate local culture and music during summer evenings. It partners with other regional events like the Red, White, and Brauen Music Festival, sometimes featuring musicians who also perform at Fourth Fridays events.

For example, the July 25, 2025, date features live music from local or regional bands (specific lineups vary), games and activities for kids, and food trucks, all emphasizing community interaction and enjoyment in a relaxed outdoor setting.

This concert series is a key part of Huntingburg’s summer event calendar, creating a consistent, enjoyable community gathering that draws residents and visitors to Market Street Park in Dubois County’s southern Indiana region. The event’s history focuses on promoting Huntingburg’s vibrant cultural scene and bringing people together through music and shared activities.
