We always try our best to have the concert at the original location; however, we may need to change over to our inclement weather plan as late as the day of the event (relocate to the Graham Recreation Center, move to another Thursday, or cancel). When a decision is made, we will reach out through our social media and concert webpage. Any changes in the schedule and/or cancellations will be posted on the Graham Recreation & Parks Facebook page.
