Concerts

Shows include Backstreet Boys, REO Speedwagon, Shinedown, Pitbull and more!

Here's how to be safe, have the best time, make memories, make new friends, and have that one-on-one moment with an artist that means so much to you!

We heard amazing stories of people seeing bands like Aerosmith playing high school functions before they got famous. Or a woman who saw the Grateful Dead when she was 6 months old. So many great stories!

Who knew a concert venue was hilarious?

They were slowly canceling shows all year, and now it's official - no more outdoor concerts at the Maine Savings Pavilion at Rock Row.

If you are a Red Sox Fan, you would love this place!

The Maine Savings Pavilion at Rock Row in Westbrook is unlikely to host any outdoor concerts this summer due to an ongoing noise dispute with neighbors

Summer is here and live music is FINALLY back in Maine! We get rolling again with a unique concert series starting up next week that features great local talent, fantastic venues, and a great community cause.

We had a bunch of concert announcements this week in New England. You remember concerts...when we all get together and go crazy with our favorite musicians? Making incredible memories with friends and sometimes, complete strangers! Rescheduled shows and some new shows have been announced at the Hampton Beach Casino Ballroom, The Bank of NH Pavilion in Gilford, Rock Row in Westbrook, and Darling's Waterfront Pavilion in Bangor. And today the Boston Red Sox announces their Summer Concert Series. All of these Fenway dates are make-up dates from 2020. I hope you held on to your tickets! All the shows are tentative based on how the pandemic goes. But the fact that we may actually see LIVE MUSIC this summer warms my heart.

The now-defunct Scarborough Downs racetrack was known as one of the great harness racing tracks in America. But did you know that The Downs also hosted some pretty amazing concerts in its history? You might be surprised at who came to Scarborough! There are not a ton of shows (we count 6) but they were all high-caliber artists that ran the gamut of music genres. Country, Metal, Hip-Hop, The Downs saw it all!

Do you remember all the concerts that happened at The Ballpark in OOB? Between 1986 and 1997 there were 75 concerts. Big names too! AC/DC, Cher, Aerosmith, Whitney Houston, Van Halen, Fleetwood Mac, and many others. Even though the noise drove the town crazy, the shows at the Ballpark- called SEAPAC, and later the Maine Entertainment Center, were some of the biggest shows Maine has ever had. It's a big part of Maine's musical history. We've compiled a list of every show and we hope it brings back good musical memories for you!

The Portland Exposition Building, officially the James A. Banks Sr. Exposition Building, but known to most as "The Expo" opened in 1915. It's the second-oldest arena in continuous operation in the USA, which alone makes it pretty historic. We've all been to the Expo for a middle school track meet, car show, beer festival, or Red Claws game over the years, but the Expo has seen some pretty amazing events featuring historic figures.

We have learned a lot about COVID-19 over the past few months.

Our friends at Sky High Maine took some drone footage this week of the new Rock Row development in Westbrook. Looks like things are happening!

If you’re dying to see Drake live, and your name isn’t Keke... Then we want to put you on the ground floor at one of Drake’s final shows of the year – in the ATL!

Westbrook's new development, Rock Row, could be home to a new, larger venue in 2019 that would be open as soon as May
