What's Your Favorite Thing About Sundown Salute?

What's Your Favorite Thing About Sundown Salute?

Each year during the 4th of July, Heritage Park in Junction City, KS is bustling with activity with festival-goers attending Sundown Salute!  The annual 4th of July celebration is one of the things I love about Junction City.  Sundown Salute is a major event that draws people to Junction City for a few days of fun and entertainment in the form of live music, arts & crafts, demonstrations, a 4th of July parade, and more!

With many different things going on in and around Heritage Park, Sundown Salute offers something fun for everyone!  The concerts are a major attraction and the live music is what I like the most about the 4th of July celebration in Junction City, Kansas. 

There is always at least one nationally-known act who performs each year and many of the performers are tribute bands to well-known acts like Aerosmith, AC/DC, The Eagles, etc.  The headlining band scheduled to perform at the 2011 Sundown Salute is the 1970s rock band, Foghat!  Other bands scheduled at this year's event include Eliminator (ZZ Top Tribute Band), Change of Heart (Heart Tribute Band), and Liverpool (Beatles Tribute Band) to name a few.  The 2011 Sundown Salute Band Schedule provides a complete list of those who will be in concert this year.

With photography as one of my passions, I always have my camera with me during the Sundown Salute concerts!  Some of my photos can be seen at the online photo-sharing website - Flickr.  These are a few sets of concert photos I took at Sundown Salute events in the past:

• Grand Funk Railroad
• Firefall
• Edge of Forever (Lynyrd Skynyrd Tribute Band)
• Reo Speedwagon

Watch for upcoming concert photos from the 2011 Sundown Salute which I will be posting here at ActiveRain and Flickr!
