Summer Kickoff in West Branch
June 13 @ 10:00 am – 11:00 pm
Kick off the summer season in charming and historic downtown West Branch—just 6 miles from Iowa City on I-80—with a full day of shopping, entertainment, and fun for all ages on Saturday, June 13, 2026!
Start your day with family-friendly activities including a Fun Run and Bike Rodeo, then spend the afternoon exploring with our NEW Downtown Discovery Passport—a fun, interactive way to eat, shop, and discover your new favorite small businesses throughout the downtown district.
Stick around for Community Bingo in the beer garden, and cap off the night with a FREE street concert featuring Birdchild!
Birdchild is bringing the soundtrack to Summer Kickoff with a high-energy, feel-good performance that’s fun for all ages. This isn’t your typical cover band. They blend today’s biggest hits—like Taylor Swift, Harry Styles, The Weeknd, and Miley Cyrus—with iconic favorites from the ’80s and beyond, including Tears for Fears, Peter Gabriel, and Fleetwood Mac. The result? A retro-meets-modern sound that’s upbeat, nostalgic, and totally danceable.
With vibrant visuals, crowd-pleasing songs, and nonstop energy, Birdchild turns every performance into a celebration. Bring the kids, gather your friends, support local by shopping small, and enjoy a FREE street party as we kick off summer together in West Branch!
