Lake Sing: A Flash Busk Event
Saturday, June 21, 2025 | 12:00–3:00 PM
Celebrate the Summer Solstice with Music, Poetry, and Purpose
Join us for Lake Sing: A Flash Busk Event, a joyful and spontaneous afternoon of live music, poetry, and community spirit! From noon to 3:00 PM on June 21, performers of all kinds—singers, instrumentalists, and poets—will fill the paths around Minneapolis’ iconic lakes with soul-stirring sounds and words.
There will be 10 designated performance spots around each lake (Lake Harriet, Bde Maka Ska, and Lake of the Isles). To reserve a spot, simply use the interactive map below and click on your location, notice the address and add your name to the location of your choice on the form.
Once you sign up for your spot, we will be in touch by email with more details.
Whether you’re performing or just enjoying the scene, this event is for the goodness and joy of live expression—and it’s also a chance to make a difference. We invite everyone to donate to the Joyce Uptown Food Shelf, supporting our neighbors in need with food and dignity.
Let’s feel the music, share the love, and feed the community together.

Amplification Note
If you’re using sound amplification, please keep the volume low to avoid sound bleed and ensure a harmonious experience for all performers and listeners.
Performer Meetup Afterwards
After the lakeside performances wrap up, all participants are encouraged to gather at the Lake Harriet Bandshell at 3:30 PM for an informal meet-up and some collaborative group music.
