Friday, July 22: There are a few tickets left for Foreigner, playing at the Xcite Center at Parx Casino. Sometimes it’s worth going to see living legends when you have the chance. Like many long-touring bands, not all members were in the original band. Actually, the only original member still playing in the band is Mick Jones. Regardless of that fact, the tour is called Greatest Hits, so you should get the full Foreigner experience. For an added bonus, the Bucks County Womens’ Chorus will be opening for Foreigner and singing a ten minute a capella set. Tickets for the show $45-$110, and the show starts at 8 p.m.
Saturday, July 23: WXPN is hosting its first annual Delaware Canal Music Festival. The festival runs from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. at Tinicum Park in Upper Black Eddy. Six bands will be playing music throughout the day. Besides the music, there will be local craft, food, beer and wine vendors. Proceeds benefit Friends of the Delaware Canal. Tickets are $25 for the day and kids under 12 are free. You can also choose to buy a $60 ticket, which includes your ticket and a membership to Friends of the Delaware Canal. Tinicum Park is located at 963 River Road in Erwinna.
With temperatures expected to be ninety-six degrees on Saturday, you might prefer a pool party. The Bucks Club is hosting a Summer Beach Party from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. with a DJ, cornhole, yard games, face painting, and Rita’s Water Ice. Obviously, it takes place poolside so you can stay cool on probably one of the hottest days of the summer. Food Wristbands are $22 for adults and $15 for kids 12 and under. The Bucks Club is located at 2600 York Rd in Jamison.
Sunday, July 24: Summer Stock has been a tradition at Neshaminy School District for over 50 years, and it’s back again this year. The final Main Stage show (for students who have completed grades 6-12) is at 3 p.m. on Sunday. They are performing Phantom of the Opera. Tickets are $12 and can be purchased at the box office before the show. If Sunday doesn’t work, they are also performing Friday at 7 p.m., Saturday at 2 p.m. and Saturday night at 7 p.m. Also, the younger kids will be performing The Lion King, Jr.(3rd through 5th grade performers) and Under the Sea (1st and 2nd grade performers) on Friday and Saturday.
