Live Music

The live music scene in Hershey Harrisburg is eclectic, electric, and exciting, from Hershey concerts in an outdoor stadium or intimate live music venues in Harrisburg. Our sound can be loud or laid back, depending on where you choose to jam along. We bring in the bold headliners, showcase phenomenal regional bands, and host local singer-songwriters.
