New this year!  Bobby McKeys has been entertaining the DMV area for nearly 10 years by Combining live music, comedy, and audience interaction into a non-stop, high-energy show unlike anything you’ve ever experienced. In National Harbor, you can see the team playing 6 nights a week  and hosting monthly afternoon shows for teens, families, and now in the form of a fun brunch. The Boom Box comes out of the garage for those alfresco events, and can be seen playing at a variety of parades, festivals, and neighborhood parties.

Concert goers are encouraged to bring blankets and lawn chairs for sitting. Coolers are allowed, but no alcohol, please. Concessions are available from the Town’s food trailer located in the back of the parking lot; an ice cream truck is stationed there for your enjoyment. A play area for children, the Kids’ Zone, allows parents to enjoy the concert while keeping an eye on the little ones.

Please note military concerts are usually about 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes

If a concert has to be cancelled due to the weather we will post the information in the following locations:
