Every year in the summer, Rose Tree Park holds outdoor summer concerts. These concerts usually begin in June and go through until August[1]. The concerts take place at the park's amphitheater. The concerts are new and returning musicians and bands, including various artists, some local.
Every winter, from December to early January, the park decorates with lights. The Festival of Lights, as it's called, features many light displays including Santa, Peanuts characters, and Frosty.
