The Downtown Duluth Street Dance is back this year with blues legend Lamont Cranston returning to headline the show from 8 p.m.-11 p.m. We have no opening band this year, as Lamont has kindly agreed to play the full first 3 hours. The Indecent Proposal Band will also be performing 11 p.m.-2 a.m. closing out the festivities.

We'll have food trucks from The Rambler and Oasis Del Norte, outdoor beer tents, dancing, live music, and an amazing party inside and outside Dubh Linn Pub. Doors open at 7 p.m. There is a $7 cover for the show. With the beautiful weather and amazing bands we are expecting a record turnout! – Press release
