Memorial Park Bandshell

Located on U.S. Highway 2 West in central Ashland, the city bandshell is named for Theodore “Ted” Mesang (1901-1967), one of America’s foremost band composers and music educators. He wrote more than 200 musical compositions and was one of the first experts in marching band formations. The historic bandshell provides a wonderful lakeside venue for open-air concerts on Thursday and Sunday evenings throughout the summer.
