Get ready to take a trip back to one of rock’s greatest decades.

This Friday, July 24, from 5:30–9:00 PM, Stark Raving Madge brings the soundtrack of the ‘70s to our Rendezvous on Riverview Free Summer Concert Series. Since forming in Des Moines in 2016, the band has built a reputation for energetic performances celebrating the era’s biggest rock classics, from The Beatles and Fleetwood Mac to countless other favorites that keep audiences singing along all night.

Grab your friends, enjoy great food and cold drinks from our vendors, and spend a summer evening on the river with one of Central Iowa’s favorite live acts. Admission is free, and the music starts at 5:30 PM. We’ll see you at Riverview Park
