Freedom Park 2018 concert series lineup
Moriah Formica will be there later in June.
The popular series of free concerts at Freedom Park in Scotia starts this Wednesday.
As usual, the season includes big lineup with multiple concerts each week from June through late August. And the lineup includes a bunch of different genres.
Freedom Park is on the Mohawk River, just over the Western Gateway Bridge from Schenectady, next to Jumpin' Jack's. (Sometimes you can catch a water ski show, too.)
