Toms River Launches 3rd Annual Summer Concert Series With Fireworks After Every Show

TOMS RIVER, NJ — Mayor Daniel T. Rodrick and the Toms River Department of Recreation have officially announced the return of the 3rd Annual Summer Concert Series, bringing weekly live music and fireworks to Shelter Cove Beach all summer long.

The free concert series kicks off at 7 PM and features a lineup of crowd‑favorite bands, themed nights, and a special America 250 Celebration. Every show marked with an asterisk includes fireworks immediately following the performance, lighting up the bay for families and visitors.

This year’s series continues the tradition of transforming Shelter Cove Beach into a festive, beachside music venue — complete with food vendors, community spirit, and some of the region’s most popular acts.
