Mark your calendars for a thrilling journey back to the ’80s as the Westerville Sounds of Summer concert series presents New Wave Nation on Sunday, August 25. This free, all-ages outdoor concert will take place at the Alum Creek Park Amphitheater, located at 221 W Main St. in Westerville. The show kicks off at 6:30 PM, promising a night of electrifying music and unforgettable memories.

Experience the ’80s Like Never Before

New Wave Nation is not just a band; it’s an experience! Since their formation in 1998, they’ve redefined what a live music performance can be, capturing the essence of 1980s arena rock concerts. Their shows are a dynamic blend of iconic anthems from the decade of excess, infused with a modern twist that keeps audiences coming back for more.

With a setlist that evolves with each performance, New Wave Nation brings the ’80s to life, making every concert feel fresh and new. The band’s use of state-of-the-art video technology transports the audience back in time, while their live performances, enhanced by their own unique arrangements, create a vibrant and interactive atmosphere. Expect to be on your feet as they deliver powerful renditions of classics like “Pour Some Sugar on Me” and the intense beats of “Smooth Criminal.” This is not just a concert; it’s a musical journey that will leave you feeling the aftereffects long after the show is over.

Comfort and Convenience at Alum Creek Park Amphitheater

The Alum Creek Park Amphitheater provides an ideal setting for this retro revival. Guests will enjoy tiered grass seating, offering a clear view of the musicians performing on a raised stage under the cover. For added comfort, don’t forget to bring your favorite chair or blanket to relax on while you soak in the sounds.

Easy Access and Free Parking

Once inside, follow the drive towards the back where you’ll find an access road to the left, leading to a large grass parking area directly behind the amphitheater. From there, a short walk along the path will take you straight to the concert venue.
