free concerts on the Litchfield Green, summer 2026

The lineup has been announced for the series of free summer concerts on the Litchfield Green sponsored by Litchfield CT Park & Recreation, and the season begins June 24 with crowd favorite Wooden Horse, which honors the music of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, and America.

Nine shows are scheduled on Wednesday evenings in the season that wraps up Aug. 19. The June and July shows are 6-8 p.m. and the August shows are 5-7 p.m.

Bring your lawn chair and blanket, and Park & Rec advises grabbing dinner to go at a local restaurant to enjoy picnic-style on the Green during the concert.

Concert guests are asked to park in municipal parking lots behind the shops and restaurants on West Street or in the town hall parking lot. 

Park & Rec’s use of the Green for the concerts also comes with a set of rules from the Borough of Litchfield for the safety and enjoyment of all who attend the concerts:

  • No alcohol or cannabis is allowed on the Green. 
  • No frisbees or balls are allowed. 
  • No dogs are allowed on the Green and concert guests are advised to please leave them at home, not in the car. 
  • Use garbage bins or carry out your garbage. 
  • No climbing on trees or poles. 
  • No open flames. 

See the Park & Rec website for other upcoming Litchfield events, including the Happy 250th Birthday America event with fireworks on June 26, and create an account to register to attend events.
