Discoteks To Bring Sounds Of The 70s To Doylestown's Central Park

DOYLESTOWN TOWNSHIP, PA — The Discoteks, touted as one of the hottest 70s bands on the East Coast, will take the stage on Wednesday, July 24 at the C&N Amphitheater in Central Park. The music begins at 7 p.m.

Based in New Jersey, the Discoteks describe themselves as "a powerhouse dance and show band performing all the hits of the 70s, disco and Motown." The band members have more than 35 years of experience in performing with various groups and have traveled the East Coast and around the nation.

"We bring a heart-pounding dance performance that brings a high energy crowd pleasing show the whole night," says the band. "Our dance show gets everyone up, out of their seats, and onto the dance floor."

The 2024 Thompson Performing Arts Series continues in July and August in Central Park with the following bands:

• July 31, Little Red Rooster (Blues music)
• August 7, Lights Out (Frankie Valli Tribute)
• August 14 River of Dreams (Billy Joel Tribute)
• August 21 Bell Bottom Blues (Eric Clapton Tribute)
• August 28 Class Act (dance band featuring local teachers)

Throughout the series, a beer garden featuring Warwick Farm Brewing will be available beginning at 6 p.m. Patrons must be 21-years-of-age to purchase beer. Any purchases must be consumed in the amphitheater.

Food trucks will also be on location including Jack & Jill, Kona Ice, Kono Pizza, Rooster & The Chick, and Salty Vets.

Parking at Central Park

Parking has been significantly reduced this year due to the park improvement construction project. When coming into Central Park at the main Wells Road entrance (one-way road) parking is available in the lots adjacent to the amphitheater and near the exit of the park. Additional
parking is available at the New Britain Road entrance to Central Park with trail connections throughout the park and to park amenities.

Parking will be limited and likely to fill quickly. An early arrival and carpooling is recommended when possible. Township staff will be on hand to assist as best as possible until parking is full. Parking at Kutz Elementary School will not be available until the June 19 concert.
