Gazebo Nights Summer Performance Series features live performances every night of June, July, and August. Performances take place in the white gazebo near Gold Rush town in Pioneer Park and are FREE to attend. The show must go on, so performances happen rain or shine.

(If there is a cancellation, if possible we will post on our Fairbanks Arts Facebook page as soon as we know).
