Bring a picnic blanket or simply find a place on the grassy amphitheatre and enjoy an evening of live music beneath the stars.

Each Saturday features a different line-up of local bands performing a mix of well-known classics and contemporary favourites. As the sun sets over Jinji Lake, the combination of music, cool lakeside breezes and dazzling city lights creates an unforgettable summer atmosphere.

The concert is just one part of the experience.
Arrive early to watch the sunset over Jinji Lake, stroll along the waterfront, or enjoy dinner and drinks at one of the many nearby restaurants and cafés before the music begins.
After the concert, take a ride on the Suzhou Eye Ferris Wheel, rising 128 metres above the lake for breathtaking panoramic views of the illuminated skyline.

The official summer programme also hints at occasional fireworks as part of the seasonal celebrations, so you may be lucky enough to catch an extra surprise on selected evenings.
