Wednesdays at the Plaza is a free summer concert series at Millennium Plaza gazebo on Stolp Avenue in downtown Aurora.

Fox Valley Folklore Society (an Aurora / No. Aurora based 501 (c) 3 charitable organization) has been doing 100 events annually in Aurora and the Fox Valley since 1975. Currently, two of our regular events are held in downtown Aurora. These include:
A weekly "Sing Around" (an informal song circle) that we have held every Wednesday night since 1/15/1975. It started in Aurora and remained there for about 16 years when we began a series of moves up and down the Fox Valley. In 2013 we returned to Aurora at Ballydoyle Irish Pub & Restaurant. The Sing Around is held every Wednesday night beginning at 7 pm and often continuing until 11 or 12.

A monthly "Sea Shanty Sing" held on the first Sunday each month from 3 to 6 PM at Ballydoyle Irish Pub & Restaurant. Sea Shantys were the work songs used to coordinate the labor of the work on the Tall Ships. They're great songs, mostly a' capella, with rousing sing along choruses. You don't need to know the songs, just be ready to belt out the choruses! This has been a regular monthly event since 2014.

SciTech and Santori Library are pairing up for a perfect afternoon! This FREE event gives young children a story and a Hands On craft project! Join us on the last Thursday of the Month at 2:30pm.
