Orange Coast College will host a free community Concert on the Green event from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m. Tuesday, August 1, in the Main Quad.
Live music will begin at 6 p.m., played by Mark Wood & the Parrot Head Band. This Jimmy Buffet and The Coral Reefer Band tribute band has been playing across the world for the US Military, concerts, corporate events, and private parties for over 20 years, including performing as the opening act for a Jimmy Buffett concert in Irvine, CA at Verizon Amphitheater. The band’s repertoire includes over forty years of Jimmy’s music from all your favorite tours.
"This is a celebration of OCC's 75th year. We invite the community to have fun, enjoy the new quad, and see the updates to the campus, buildings, and facilities,” said Executive Director of College Advancement Doug Bennett.
This free family community event is part of the year-long celebration of OCC celebrating its 75th anniversary. Food trucks will be onsite, and we will have opportunity drawings for giveaways, including OCC t-shirts, mini coolers, tumblers, and a Beach Cruiser throughout the evening. Hawaiian shirts are encouraged.
"The concert is an opportunity for the community to enjoy a summer evening with friends and family listening to music at OCC," said Foundation Development Coordinator Rena Quiñonez.
Orange Coast College is located at 2701 Fairview Road in Costa Mesa. Free concert parking is available in all lots.
