Has the concert tonight been moved or cancelled?
Thank you for asking, Diane. I realized I didn’t include a link to find out about weather-related schedule changes (because I wasn’t sure where to check – but I found it). According to the NewMarket Sqaure Facebook page, the concert for tonight has been cancelled because of the weather.
