ELLICOTTVILLE NY
The Ellicottville Chamber of Commerce is pleased to announce the return of the Gazebo Series, sponsored by Niagara Label Company, which invites the community out to the Village Gazebo every Thursday evening for free, live entertainment. A popular celebration on the summer events list, the Ellicottville Gazebo Series attracts families (and even their pets) to gather together; bring your blankets and lawn chairs, your frosty beverages, even a snack, and enjoy a different musical act each week from 7-9pm at no charge!
Although the Gazebo Series generally takes place on Thursdays, this year’s series will open with a special live theater performance on Friday, June 30th. This Friday feature will also act as the kick-off event for Ellicottville’s Summer Music Festival, welcoming visitors near and far for what’s sure to be a memorable holiday weekend! Get ready for a step back in time, as Grease takes over the gazebo!
Surely many of you will remember the 1978 hit film, Grease, featuring John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John. Based on the musical which hit the big stage in 1972, a local Buffalo group is bringing nostalgic songs and dance to fans in the 14731.
THE STORY: Sandy Dumbrowski, the new girl in town, and Danny Zuko, the school’s coolest greaser, have a secret summertime romance – but when they get back to school, everything is different. Sandy attempts to navigate the tricky Rydell High School social waters and catch Danny’s attention again, but Danny is chiefly concerned with maintaining his tough-guy reputation. In the end, the Pink Ladies help Sandy figure out how to win back the leader of the Burger Palace Boys.
This special performance is free to attend! The show begins at 7:00pm, giving you plenty of time beforehand to explore all the unique shopping, dining and everything else our village has to offer.
Starting July 6th, the Gazebo Series will return to its regular Thursday evenings, with the following musical acts booked:
- July 6th: Cami Clune
- July 13th: Brianna Blankenship & Dan Roche
- July 20th: Party Squad
- July 27th: Jess & The Mess
- August 3rd: Amy Frost with ASP
