This summer, Rebirth, Johnny Sansone, Bonerama, The Write Brothers, and more will head across the river to the 2015 Wednesdays on the Point concert series in Algiers.
The eight week summer concert series will take place every Wednesday from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. from June 10 through July 29.
Last year, the event hosted more than 20,000 attendees over the eight week run.
“The mission of Wednesdays on the Point is to amplify customer traffic to Algiers Point businesses during the summer months and boost ferry ridership,” Derrick Martin, Executive Director of the Algiers Economic Development Foundation, said in a press release. “This event also allows us to showcase our historic architecture and small town charm while enjoying the best of view of the city.”
