Another live music line-up is coming to The Yard this month and we couldn't be more excited!

Have you saved the date yet?

We've got another great lineup coming to The Yard on June 27th, with a bonus 2 hours of live music to offer this round. Live music will kick off at 3PM this date as we pump our sweet sounds a bit earlier to go along with the Stars, Stripes, & Steam event happening alongside our Rhythm in the Railyard Music Series.

$15 will get you access to all of the live music coming from the Hardy Pavilion while you can also enjoy several other family-friendly activities on-site. Check out the Kentucky Steam Heritage Corp. page for full event details beyond the live music. The music series is a rain-or-shine event. Lawn chairs and portable tents are welcome and encouraged for your comfort at the event.

We will once again have Lib's Smoke Shack providing delicious food and soft drinks. Spud Sisters will be assisting with your hunger, too. Kentucky Mountain Moonshine will be back with more spirited beverages. Lemonade Lane will squeeze out plenty more fruity refreshment as well!

No outside food or drink! Please support our amazing local vendors who support our events.

We hope to see you here!
