Vermillion's Favorite Summer Music Series
Thursdays On The Platz is seven (sometimes eight!) weeks of local live music. Every Thursday in July and August features a band downtown at the Ratingen Platz, a central plaza named after our sister city in Germany. The exception to the rule is the second Thursday in August, where the series heads to the Clay County Fair. Each week features a new brewery at the beer tent, and food vendors serve everything from buffalo chicken to Peruvian brats! Kids can enjoy bouncy houses, chalk, water tables, and lawn games. On especially hot days, we'll even open up a fire hydrant! Every week brings different activities and vendors, so follow the official Thursdays On The Platz Facebook Page to stay in the loop.
Season announcements for 2025 are coming soon, so stay tuned!
