SXU Presents Free Summer Concert and Fireworks Show, June 22

Please join Saint Xavier University for the school’s annual summer concert and fireworks show this Sunday, June 22.

This year, the New Odyssey Band will be back bringing their “three guys, 30 instruments” experience to the SXU stage, as they tear through sets of classic rock, country, novelty and other speciality arrangements. The show begins at 7 p.m. on the front steps of the Warde Academic Center at SXU’s Chicago campus, 3700 W. 103rd St.

The concert will conclude with a patriotic finale and fireworks display at 9:45 p.m. (dusk). This year’s fireworks will be launched with better audience sight lines in mind.

Community residents are invited to bring their blankets and lawn chairs to enjoy the show on the front lawn of Saint Xavier University. Concessions will be available from The Original Rainbow Cone, Gilhooley's Grande Saloon, Calabria Imports, Happy Jack's and the SXU Alumni Association. Residents can also bring their own refreshments.
