Carnival Thrills by day, R&B by night with Bobby V, Deirdre Gaddis & The Connection Band at East Lake Park! Free!! 🎡🎶

Hey Birmingham! Safe Summer Series returns on Sunday, September 20—this time at East Lake Park! Join us for carnival fun starting at 2 PM, followed by an evening of live music and good vibes at 5 PM.

Enjoy carnival rides, including a pirate ship and ballistic swing ride, plus soul food from local food trucks, face painting, games and prizes for kids on an afternoon of family fun. Whether you missed the first round or decided once wasn’t enough, we’re bringing Birmingham together again!

Keep the experience going with an unforgettable night of music featuring multi-platinum R&B royalty Bobby V alongside the soulful, show-stopping vocals of Deirdre Gaddis. Backed by the high-octane rhythms of The Connection Band.  From smooth R&B to high-energy grooves, this lineup will have you singing along and moving all evening.

It’s made possible by a partnership with District 4 Councilor Brian Gunn along with multiple community organizations committed to improving the quality of life in Birmingham.
