This is a free concert, and no tickets are required for admission. What better way to celebrate America's birthday with a free concert put on by some of our heroes playing America's favorite music (along with a few other reported surprises).

Seaside Pavilion is Walking Distance from Maine Beaches

Seaside Pavilion is less than a mile away from the very popular Old Orchard Pier. Regardless of where you live in Maine, spending the day at the beach at Old Orchard Beach and then capping it off with a free concert by the 195th Army National Guard Band sounds like a special experience for the entire family.
