One of summer’s great rituals is to pack lawn chairs in the car and head out to concerts in the parks around the Cape. We’re fortunate to have lots of choices nearby the Inn that are easy for guests to enjoy, all free of charge. You can grab a picnic to go (we can give you suggestions for that) or stop by after dining out. Either way, there’s nothing quite like winding down a warm night with wonderful music.
Right here in Eastham, we have band concerts just five minutes from the Inn at Windmill Park (we can give you directions). Concerts are every Monday night at 7:00 p.m. during July and August.
Neighboring Orleans hosts live concerts Tuesday and Wednesday evenings in July and August featuring a mix of musical genres, including cool jazz and a women’s a capella group.
