Thursday Night On The Square

A fun event that is perfect during the summer weather is attending Thursday Night On The Square! Every Thursday from early July to late August, the City of Palmdale holds this event that has live music, food, booths, and an open-air market.

The food choices that are available come from caterers in the local area, so it is a perfect time to try out something new or eat as many street tacos as you can. 

You will also have fun walking around looking at the variety of booths, usually, they are from organizations that want you to get involved in helping the community or they are vendors with super cute light up balloons and more. The open-air market is something that catches everyone’s attention. You will see vendors selling items they have handmade, such as beautiful, one of a kind jewelry. 

This fun event really brings you closer to the community and it is something to always look forward to in the summer. So if you missed it this year, be sure to enjoy it next summer. 

Movie Nights

This event is not out of the ordinary, everyone loves fun movie nights! You may have not known how many movie nights take place during the summer and spring in Palmdale. Grab a group of your close friends and enjoy a movie that you may have never seen before or known by heart. 

The movie nights are located either at Dry Town Waterpark, the Palmdale Amphitheater, or the Palmdale City Library. Typically in the evenings around 5pm.

Music In The Parks is held at the Poncitlan Square and at Domenic Massari Park starting at 6pm. There are so many of these events from June through August. Perfect to put on your summer bucket list. 

Bring your blankets and lawn chairs because there will be live music coming your way. The music that is performed is from small bands making their way to fame.

Paws In The Park

This fun event is perfect for our furry friends and of course the doggy lovers as well! At the Yellen Dog Park, the City of Palmdale celebrates the anniversary of the park with Paws In The Park which is June 15th. It has now become an annual event because of how much we love to bring our dogs, big and small, all together for them to have some summer fun. 

The event is mostly targeted towards the enjoyment of our four-legged friends, but you will most definitely have a great time. Bring your dog’s bathing suit because there is a splash zone where they can run around and get wet! Who wouldn’t love that? There are fun photo areas where dogs can have their picture taken, it really is the cutest thing ever. But wait there’s more! You can put your pup to the test and see how artistic they are, the event provides paw art supplies to create masterpieces. 

This event really is any dog owner’s dream. Not only is it a great opportunity for dogs to socialize but it also lets you get to know the other dog lovers in your area. So if you are looking forward to it, make sure not to miss it!
