Pat Bayly Square (75 Bayly Street W.), Ajax’s downtown urban hub, will bring a vibrant energy to the community this summer with free family-friendly concerts, children’s performances and Zumba®.
Kicking off on July 7 and running every Tuesday evening until September 1, join us for your Tuesday night entertainment.
All performances take place rain or shine. Performances will move indoors (Ajax Community Centre – HMS Room or Ajax Community Centre – Ice Pad 2) during inclement weather and admission for indoor seating is on a first come, first served basis (300 capacity). Please check the Town of Ajax social media channels after 5 p.m. for inclement weather updates. Decisions will be finalized at that time, unless otherwise posted.
