Symphony music isn’t just for adults! The Columbus Commons is hosting Popcorn Pops with The Columbus Symphony this summer! It’s a great chance to show kids how fun this type of music can be!
These shows are perfect for families with children ages 3 – 12. Concerts feature free popcorn and pre-concert activities such as face painting, art projects, musical instruments and the Columbus Commons Family Fun Zone with inflatables and open play activities.
Gates open and pre-concert activities begin at 5:30 p.m. – get there early to snag a good picnic spot. Concerts begin at 7 p.m. and run for approximately one hour.
Tickets are $12.50 for adults and $8 for children aged 3-12. Children 2 and under are free. They can be purchased at the gate, by phone at 614-469-0939, or online at www.PicnicWithThePops.com.
