Brentwood Summer Concert Series Returns for 2026 with America 250 Theme

The City of Brentwood has announced the return of its 37th Annual Summer Concert Series, bringing four free, family-friendly concerts to Crockett Park from May through July 2026. This year’s lineup carries added significance as it aligns with America 250, the nationwide commemoration of the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence.

Brentwood’s connection to early American history adds local meaning to the milestone. According to the City, several Revolutionary War veterans settled in the area through land grants, with nine buried in Brentwood.
