Take mom out for some live music this weekend throughout Northeastern Pennsylvania, no matter her music taste.
There’s plenty to see, do, and hear this Mother’s Day weekend from the Tim McGraw concert at Mohegan Sun Arena at the Casey Plaza (for the country moms) to the Nothing More & Wage War concert (for the rocker moms). There’s always a little something playing for everybody from Thirsty Thursday through Sunday Funday in NEPA.
All venues/events listed in no particular order.
This week’s cover photo: Legendary American country music star, Tim Mcgraw comes to the Mohegan Sun Arena at Casey Plaza on Saturday, May 11, for a sold-out concert. Along this stop on his “Standing Room Only Tour 2024,” he’ll also be joined by Carly Pearce.
