In May, the Tucson Pops Board of Directors kicked off its 69th spring season of the Tucson Pops Orchestra’s Music Under the Stars.
Conductor and Music Director Khris Dodge has been delighting folks with free concerts at Reid Park and now they’re ready to bring the tunes to downtown Tucson.
In honor of the Fourth of July, Tucson Pops Orchestra is hosting a two-day Independence Day Celebration at the St. Augustine Cathedral. Catch the performance at 7:30 p.m. on either Saturday, June 29, or Sunday, June 30.
It’s also the perfect opportunity to support local downtown restaurants!
We have a guide to local spots in downtown Tucson (check out our interactive guide), but Tucson Foodie has lined up a couple of deals within walking distance of the Independence Day performances.
