COLUMBUS, GA —

Uptown Columbus is ramping up its spring event season, which means the return of the Friday Night Concert Series. The festivities began Friday, April 7, and area residents and visitors headed to Broadway to experience a free concert to start the weekend off right. The series will run six consecutive Fridays with each show starting at 7 p.m. EST.

Throughout the series, attendees will experience a variety of genres and entertainment. From touring tribute bands to local musicians, the Uptown stage will offer a great variety of tunes.

Concerts will be held every Friday night from 7 to 10 p.m. and will be on the 1000 block of Broadway April 7, 14 and 21, then will move to the 1100 block of Broadway on April 28 and May 5. On May 12, the show will switch to Woodruff Park and begin at 6 p.m.
