Evenings in Olde Seville Square is an annual concert series that takes place in Seville Square. Founded by Jim Tanck, a board member of the Pensacola Heritage Foundation, the concerts are the entertainment component of the Heritage Foundation's earlier venture, An Evening In Old Seville Square, 1966-1972.
The very popular concerts, which began in 1987, are held in the summer months (and another at Christmas) every Thursday from 7-9 pm. They are free to attend and attract an average of 10,000 people weekly.
