26th Annual TD Bank Pops by the Sea

The TD Bank Pops by the Sea concert is Cape Cod's single largest cultural event. For each of the past twenty-four years we have welcomed one of the nation's finest and best-loved musical ensembles - the Boston Pops Esplanade Orchestra - to the Hyannis Village Green for their only Cape Cod appearance.

Under the baton of Maestro Keith Lockhart and a celebrity guest conductor, this fundraising concert regularly sells out to a live audience of over 15,000 - the Cape's largest single audience. Cape Cod residents and visitors from throughout the United States and abroad gather for the afternoon's entertainment. Together they sit at VIP tables, festival seating or on the lawn and enjoy this magical afternoon event, one which benefits art and culture on Cape Cod all year long.

Proceeds from this concert enable the Arts Foundation to fulfill its mission to support, promote, and celebrate the arts and culture of Cape Cod year-round. The Arts Foundation of Cape Cod provides artistic, cultural, and educational programs, such as the Passport to the Arts, a collaborative marketing program that introduces new audiences to the cultural treasures on Cape Cod at a reduced price, and our grants program, which supports those who create, foster, and promote art and culture in our community.

Contact the Arts Foundation of Cape Cod to reserve advertising space in the 2011 program book, a VIP table of ten, group festival seats, and more!
