The 23rd Annual Family Music Festival, presented by Los Angeles County Mayor Michael D. Antonovich, the Los Angeles County Department of Parks and Recreation, and the Arboretum Foundation will feature legendary singer Pat Boone on Sunday, June 7th.
Pat Boone, who rocketed to stardom in the 1950s with classic songs including “TuttiFrutti,” “Ain’t That a Shame,” “I Almost Lost My Mind” and “Long Tall Sally,” will be joined by The Crystals, whose classics (“Then He Kissed Me,” “Da Doo Ron Ron,” “He’s a Rebel,”) were instrumental to the ‘60s girl-group explosion that included the Supremes, the Ronettes and others; and Freddy Cannon (“Palisades Park”), holder of the record for most appearances on “American Bandstand,” and whose work has been covered by the Rolling Stones.
Tickets to the Family Music Festival are $25 ($20 for Arboretum members) and are on sale now at http://www.pasadenasymphony-pops.org. Children 12 and under are free and there is first-come, first-served lawn seating at the Arboretum (301 N. Baldwin Avenue, Arcadia, CA 91007). Parking fees are $10 for the Arboretum lot; and $6 for the Santa Anita Park lot, where free shuttles will operate to and from the Arboretum. A limited number of accessible parking spaces are available. Gates will open at 2 p.m., and the concert is scheduled to begin at 3:30 p.m. Concertgoers are urged to arrive early.
