Thank You to Our Amazing Community!

Historic Downtown Wilson and the Vollis Simpson Whirligig Park & Museum are incredibly grateful to our sponsors, volunteers, partner organizations, staff, bands, and concert attendees who made the 2024 Gig in the Park series a fantastic success.

This 2024 series was unforgettable, drawing our largest crowd ever with over 2,500 attendees at one concert! We also introduced ASL interpretation for the first time, making our events more inclusive. Despite facing challenging weather and having to reschedule a couple of concerts, our dedicated team pulled together to create a series to remember.

As we look forward to next year, we invite you to be part of this vibrant event. Your sponsorship helps us bring live music to our community, enhance the concert experience, and ensure accessibility for everyone.

Interested in Sponsoring?

If your organization is interested in sponsoring the 2025 Gig in the Park series, we would love to connect with you. Learn more about how you can get involved and make a difference in our community.

Join us in continuing the tradition of great music, community spirit, and unforgettable nights in Historic Downtown Wilson!
