Description

Downtown South Orange will draw more than a thousand residents and visitors to its groovy summer kick-off event, Under Cover Music Fest, which features six cover bands and a bustling beer garden—plus, no cover charge. On Saturday, June 1, from 4 pm to 10 pm (rain date Sunday, June 2, from 3 pm to 9 pm), South Orange Village Center Alliance (SOVCA) is pleased to present the second annual Under Cover Music Fest, a free event for all ages in the heart of South Orange on Sloan Street. After a successful inaugural year, the cover band festival is back, and bigger and better than before.  

New this year is a large beer garden (cash bar) hosted by The Fox & Falcon, which will serve beer from four regional top breweries (SOMA, Carton, Asbury Park and Founders), wine, cider, and a “Flood’s Hill” specialty cocktail (Espolon Blanco Tequila, Combier, lime, English cucumber and black pepper). The beer garden will be located on Sloan Street at the crosswalk in front of Starbucks (youth are permitted to enter, and provisions will be in place to ensure there is no under-age drinking). Kids activities will be provided by General Store Cooperative, which will also be selling music-centric wares from local independent stores, markers and artist. 

Residents are allowed to bring their own food, blankets and low-profile folding chairs (no higher than 9” off the ground) to “camp out” and listen to their favorite songs on Sloan Street. While enjoying the music, visit all of the great local businesses in South Orange—some of which will be running specials on the day of to celebrate.
