Celebrate Brooklyn! ReturnsWarm weather has finally arrived, and with it the best part of warm weather: outdoor concerts! One such outdoor fest, Celebrate Brooklyn!, has just announced its 32nd annual festival with an opening night performance by Norah Jones on June 9. And it's free (though there is a $3 suggested donation)! Prior to the show, there will be the Opening Night Gala party, with ticket prices starting at $325. Last year saw artists such as David Byrne, MGMT and Animal Collective all taking part in the festivities. The full summer lineup will be announced May 4.
