Upside Downtown

This annual summer concert series is in its 5th season of programming! Upside Downtown concerts run every Thursday in July and August, from 5-7pm, on Rotary Square at Casa. Concerts are free to the public and are a fabulous opportunity to hear some of the best music being made in Lethbridge.

New this year POP UP / GET DOWN! The last Upside Downtown in August will be an extended festival evening with more bands, more art, more food, and more drinks!  The entire block of 8th Street outside of Casa will be closed. A new addition will be a local outdoor, art market!
