Upcoming Summer Concerts in the Akron Area

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Akron chapter.

Yes! Summer is finally around the corner. You’ve made it to the final round of the semester and it’s time to slay that head-beast called finals. Some are graduating, some are finishing their first semester (like me) and some are stuck in the middle, but I am sure all of us are waiting for Summer Break. That means pool parties, vacations, BBQs, fireworks, camping, and especially music. For those looking for fun in the area, Blossom Music Center in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio is hosting a slew of artists this summer, with so many genres that there’s something for everybody!

Hopefully you can find something you like and have fun. Or if you’re like me, a total book nerd and slowly slipping into introvert status, you could stay home (safe from the bees), catch up on your fave books series, and play Nancy Drew video games. Yep, sounds like my kind of summer! Hope it’s a great one!
