In the summer months, downtown Buffalo rocks every Thursday night with the annual “Thursday at the Square” concert series. Located in the heart of Buffalo’s business district at Lafayette Square, “The Square” has been delivering top-name music acts to the post-work crowd for 21 years. One of the best aspects of the concert series – it’s free!
