Prosper, Texas – The town of Prosper is set to come alive with the spirit of community and celebration on October 7th.

The Halftones will be the headlining act, taking the audience on a nostalgic journey through classic rock tunes from legendary bands like Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith, AC/DC, and Tom Petty, to name a few. Additionally, the Retrophonics, a funk and soul band based out of Fort Worth, and the Turnpike Tributedours, a tribute band celebrating the Turnpike Troubadours, will be gracing the stage. With lawn seating available, it’s the perfect setting to revel in the sounds and rhythm of the evening.

The Kids Zone will feature a variety of entertainment options, such as inflatables, slides, and sports games. Additional highlights include face painters, a balloon artist, and a photo booth, ensuring memorable moments for families and children.
In a heartwarming gesture, town council members will serve dinner to attendees, providing an opportunity for residents to interact with local officials in a relaxed setting. Moreover, attendees will have the chance to connect with and learn about local nonprofits.
