Steve Miller Band, Peter Frampton Tune Up for Best Summer Night

Classic rock mega-icons Peter Frampton and Steve Miller should perform the job handily at Best Summer Night 2018.

Friday, June 22

With legends Steely Dan and Crosby, Stills, and Nash being the predecessors, Presque Isle Partnership event planners said they knew it would be a tall order to top the last (and first) couple of years' highly popular Best Summer Night on-the-beach concert series lineups.

But classic rock mega-icons Peter Frampton and Steve Miller should perform the job handily at Best Summer Night 2018, coming up Friday, June 22 at Presque Isle State Park's beautiful Beach 11.

It's not a free event — and not a cheap one, either — but, as with past Best Summer Nights, all proceeds benefit the Presque Isle Partnership, which has a stated mission "to enhance the visitor experience while protecting the natural environment" of the region's largest and most valuable natural resource.

Anyone interested should go after tickets while supplies last. Parking is first come, first served with VIP ticket-holders getting dibs on the best parking areas. No alcohol/tailgating, chairs, cameras, coolers, or backpacks are permitted on-site.

— Ryan Smith

7:30 p.m., pre-party with beer, wine and hors d'oeuvres at 5:30 (V.I.P. ticketholders only) // Beach 11, Presque Isle State Park // reserved tickets $100 or $125, V.I.P. tickets $175 // bestsummernight.com
