Over the last ten years, Lake County has seen a surge in free outdoor music events, with Mentor Rocks leading the way, attracting nearly 93,000 fans last year. This trend continues with the Tunes at the Lagoons concert series, which is entering its fourth season at Mentor Lagoons Marina. Set against the scenic backdrop of the water, these Friday night concerts offer a blend of music, food, and relaxation throughout the summer.

The 2024 lineup for Tunes at the Lagoons includes two shows each month, showcasing local talent such as Follow the Sun, Sumrada, Gimme Sugar, LoConti, Country Redford, and Cheeseburgers in Paradise. These concerts are scheduled from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM, providing the perfect evening outing. In addition to the music, attendees can savor a variety of dishes from local food trucks and enjoy a selection of beers and wines, with offerings suitable for adults over 21. Guests are encouraged to bring lawn chairs or blankets for comfortable seating in the field.

Thanks to the support of sponsors like Cleveland Clinic, Mutsko Insurance Services, Raising Cane’s, and others, admission and parking are free, making it an accessible event for all. The Mentor Lagoons Nature Preserve & Marina, located at 8365 Harbor Drive, serves as the idyllic venue for these gatherings.
