A D Street Music Foundation event
ParkapaloozaThe Beach Is Back!
Parkapalooza 2026 brings music, sunshine, and an all-day shoreline celebration back to Sanford Lake—with free entry to the park.
Why this one matters
Parkapalooza is back at the beach.
The Beach Is Back! For 2026, Parkapalooza returns to Sanford Lake’s restored waterfront for the kind of day this community has been waiting to share.
This is more than an end-of-summer festival. It is a chance to gather by the water, hear great music, make new memories, and celebrate a beach day at the lake once again.
