It wouldn't be summer in Salisbury without Pops at the Post! Join us downtown at Bell Tower Green on Saturday, June 6, 2026, for an evening of music with the Salisbury Symphony and friends.

Music kicks off at 5:00 PM with the Salisbury Swing Band, followed by the 208th Army Band at 6:30 PM, leading up to the Salisbury Symphony's performance at 7:30 under the baton of Music Director Daniel Wiley and the beautiful Rowan County stars.

This year, we’re thrilled to welcome special guest artist Caitlin Warbelow, a New York–based Alaskan violinist and Celtic fiddler who originated the fiddle/violin book in the Tony Award–winning Broadway musical Come From Away. Caitlin and the SSO will be joined by some guest artists throughout the night, including musicians from the 208th Army Band.

Pack your lawn chairs and picnic blankets, gather your friends and family, and get ready for an unforgettable night of swing, patriotic favorites, and high‑energy fiddling—all completely free, thanks to our generous community partners.
