HTN: Big Changes for Buffalo Place Concerts

Buffalo Place's downtown concert line up is offering up some big changes this summer, with the focus shifting from Lafayette Square to the new Inner Harbor. Buffalo Place Rocks the Harbor has expanded into a series of four monthly mini-festivals from June through September, with admission charges added to the mix. The lineup for the long-standing Thursday at the Square has been shortened to May 28th through July 30th, although those shows will still be free. In previous years the Thursday series ran through at least Labor Day.

Buffalo Place Could Take Over Harbor

Buffalo Place, which manages the downtown pedestrian mall, may soon take over the Erie Canal Harbor's day-to-day operations. Buffalo Place would provide security, maintenance, and dock operations, at a cost of one-point-seven-million dollars.
