Legacy Square is going up, up, up! ✨

This Saturday is your moment to catch our final 2026 Saturday Concert and we’re closing it out with a Golden K‑Pop Dance Party!

In just over a year, Legacy Square went from an empty gravel lot to hosting thousands for FIFA — plus weekend movie nights, live performances, art, and community.

So, stop hiding and start shining and be part of Legacy Square’s inaugural summer.

Have some dance moves? Come show us how it’s done (done done).

Admission cost? None. It's... FREEE.
