TOMS RIVER – While many people hit the beach during the day for splashing around and fun in the sun, there’s a good reason to visit the beach in the evening: the free summer concerts.
Bring a beach blanket, bring a beach chair, and bring your family to Shelter Cove, 1390 Bay Avenue.
Some things to keep in mind in order to enjoy the shows: they are alcohol, pet, and smoking free. Additionally, drones are not allowed.
No parking is permitted on the street on Bay Avenue.
If the weather is looking bad and there’s a chance the concert will be cancelled, check the Toms River Recreation page on Facebook. Any cancellation will be announced by noon of that day.
