LIMERICK PA – It’s time, the Limerick Township Parks and Recreation Department proclaims, to dream “of sunny skies, warm nights, and live music.”
That’s because the township’s 2025 Summer Concert Series is under way, with three performances left on the calendar between June 26 and Aug. 14 in Limerick Community Park, 180 Swamp Pk., Royersford.
The department anticipates “amazing bands and fun-filled evenings in the park.”
Concerts still ahead offer adult-recognizable music, but certainly are appropriate for families. All start at 7 p.m.
Remaining on the township concert list are:
- Where’s Pete, June 26 (Thursday) at 7 p.m., “known for their extensive repertoire including rock, pop, jazz, funk, R&B, Latin, country, and dance;”
- Tucked In, July 24 (Thursday) at 7 p.m., a Phoenixville area band that last year released an extended play recording of “personal stories about life in suburban Pennsylvania;” and
- The Fabulous Grease Band, Aug. 14 (Thursday) at 7 p.m., “a seven-member “Best of the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s rock ‘n’ roll party band.”
Park Expansion In Progress
Limerick Community Park, the venue for the township concert series, has been steadily growing and adding facilities. Initial work there, representing a cost of $1.3 million, is expected to be completed by June.
The park expansion, on about 25 acres of land donated in 2016, includes new tennis and pickleball courts that are already said to be in high public demand for one-hour-long playing slots. They are accompanied by a new parking lot off Ridge Pike that could accommodate between 60 and 70 vehicles.
In the expansion’s planned future reportedly also are construction of two additional ball fields. Redesign plans also propose multi-use fields for soccer, lacrosse, and football, as well as basketball and volleyball courts, trails, and community gardens. Under consideration as well are a large multi-use field, an amphitheater, and a complete rebuild of its Manderach Playground.
The aging playground, opened in 1998, is currently slated to close in November. It will then be unavailable until sometime in 2026, according to the township.
The township Parks and Recreation Committee is currently holding public meetings on what it calls “a new outdoor adventure destination for the children of our community.”
