Music on the Saco

Live music every Saturday this summer, free for every paddler on the river.

Around 2 o'clock on Saturday afternoons, you'll hear it before you see it.


Music drifting across the water. A band on the beach. Canoes and kayaks pulling up on shore, paddles set down, nobody in a hurry to push back out.


That's Music on the Saco, a live music series running every Saturday this summer at the Beach Camping Area. Local and regional artists, a food truck on-site, and one rule you'll like: if you paddled to the music, you're in for free.

Free for Paddlers

If you're arriving by canoe or kayak, there's no cover charge. It's one of the better reasons to plan your route through the Beach Camping Area on a Saturday.


Not coming from the river? A $10 cover applies for off-site visitors.

Food Truck On-Site

Grab something to eat while the music plays. No need to pack it in.

Want to catch a show?
