Lakefront Park Bandshell

The Lakefront Park Bandshell is located along the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway.  In building the bandshell, great consideration had to be taken in because of its location next to this designated scenic waterway.  It had to blend with the native landscape and conform with WI Department of Natural Resource guidelines.  Color schemes had to reflect the hues found in nature.  The Art Deco architectural  style matches the entry stone archway to the park.  The bandshell was modeled after a previous bandshelL; the William H. Phipps Foundation helped to fund it.

Free concerts are held most Thursdays with some other days during the summer months.  A variety of music is offered.  The William H. Phipps Foundation has also sponsored the annual appearance of the Minnesota Orchestra concert for the past number of years.  The Foundation also assisted the City of Hudson in the bandshell's construction.
