HB Concerts not returning for summer concerts in 2025

Concert promoter HB Concerts will not be bringing summer concerts to Toledo in 2025.

City officials confirmed Friday that Hunter Brucks, CEO and president of HB Concerts, expressed his intention to withdraw from booking shows at Promenade Park.

“Hunter Brucks gave us notice Wednesday evening that he doesn’t intend to return next year. We’re working with ConnecToledo on future downtown activation, including the summer concert series, but we don’t have any other updates at this time,” said Amy Voigt, communications specialist for the City of Toledo.

HB Concerts put on a handful of concerts this year at the downtown Toledo park, the last of which was Aug. 31.

The company was previously involved in an effort to get a concert venue built in Waterville and was in talks to have a permanent venue built within city of Toledo limits.
