Smithfield’s Olden Days festival kicks off Friday, June 23 with oldies and beach music band Ocean Breeze out of Virginia Beach.

This week’s concert starts a bit earlier, at 7 p.m. and runs to 9 p.m. on the Gazebo stage in downtown Smithfield. Tourism officials set the earlier time so that concert will conclude before the annual Olden Days Ghost Walk.

The concert is free, but bring a chair or blanket for added comfort. Next up is the York River Band.
