Stroll historic Third Street while listening to live music

A new weekly live music series is coming to downtown Geneva this summer. Sunday Sidewalk Sessions, a walkable, live music experience debuts July 5 and will bring the sounds of local musicians to Third and State streets on Sunday afternoons.

Inspired by the rich music scene in the Fox Valley, Preservation and Atlas Chicken Geneva created the program to encourage residents and visitors to stroll downtown, discover local businesses, and enjoy live performances. Four musicians will play each Sunday through Sept. 27, excluding festival weekends.
