Saturn Presents
Alive After 5 - 2008! |
|
|
Every weekday in June, the Alive After 5
concerts fill Peavey Plaza with music from blues to swing to
rock.
The concerts are free and concert-goers
may enjoy a variety of food and
drink from a variety of vendors including Famous Dave's,
Fisherman's Wharf and Ben & Jerry's, Tacos, and new in 2008, a Flat-Bread Pizza Vendor! Alive has been a Downtown tradition for 23 years.
Tables and chairs are set up to enjoy the music
in Downtown's one and only Peavey Plaza on 11th & Nicollet Mall.
Weekday lunch at Peavey features for "Tunes
at Noon" featuring many acoustic musicians, from 11:30 to 1 p.m.
The Alive After Five and Tunes at Noon concerts
are sponsored by Saturn,
Sam Adams,
Cities 97, City Pages, Sutter Home, and the Minneapolis Downtown Council.
Downtown Network Volunteer Information:
Downtown Network members & guests contribute by volunteering
to staff the beverage booth. Members have priority for
volunteer sign-up over guests.
Up to eight
