🎵 In Moncton, every outdoor space is a potential concert venue, especially during Acoustica when familiar faces and emerging artists serenade the crowds at spots all over town during this annual live music series. Pull up a stool or lay out your picnic blanket, order a bite to eat or bring some snacks and indulge your inner music lover under the open sky - it’s a summertime tradition in the city you won’t soon forget. 🎵
