This night is about FUN and celebration,” said Jamie LaFreniere, Executive Director of the Fox Valley Symphony Orchestra. “From kids to grandparents, absolutely everyone belongs here, and it is designed to bring us all together.” Sponsorships make it possible to offer this event for free, so there are no barriers to participation for anyone.
There will be a mix of classical music, rock, and pop from the FVSO. The audience will hear Sousa and Sibelius, as well as Chicago and the Scorpions. Fox Valleyaires Men’s Barbershop Chorus and MacDowell Male Chorus will perform this year, too.

Last year, someone sent us a handwritten request, and rumor has it, we are going to play that piece this summer! I wish I could tell you more, but it is super secret. But if that note was from YOU, now you know!! pic.twitter.com/N4LYjLo179

“We are also happy to bring back the open rehearsal during the daytime hours, 3-5pm, for a more sensory-friendly experience,” said LaFreniere. “For those with special needs who have a hard time with large crowds and don’t want the noise of fireworks, we love having them join us earlier so they can still get to enjoy a free concert.”
