Musical Milton
MILTON MUSIC FESTIVAL
June 28-29
Governor Hutchinson’s Field, Adams St., Milton
A pleasant, care-free way to welcome the arrival of summer is at the Milton Music Festival, held at Governor Hutchinson’s Field atop Adams Street, looking out at Boston Harbor. The free, family-friendly event brings Milton residents and folks from neighboring Dorchester, Quincy and Canton together.
The festival offers fun children’s activities such as water slides, axe throwing and a gigantic sand box, along with plenty of food trucks and a special dining tent from favorite Milton restaurants, Novara and Abby Park.
Festivities begin on Saturday afternoon with activities and music for children, followed by Michelle Brooks Thompson, an award-winning recording artist and finalist on the television show, The Voice. Michelle is followed by Big Party Orchestra, a beloved Boston band with a high energy, dance-floor vibe. Ending the evening out is a fireworks display over Boston Harbor.
On day two, the festival pivots to Celtic Sunday, with a full schedule of beautiful and uplifting Irish, Scottish and Celtic music. Performers include Strawberry Hill, Erin’s Melody, the Fenian Sons and the Dooley Brothers, pictured above, along with every popular DJ Bobby Brooks. The headliner on Celtic Sunday is renowned singer and musician Sean Keane from Co. Galway, Ireland.
