Lawn Chair Night in Downtown Decorah: Mike Munson

Join for Lawn Chair Night Thursday, August 6 at 6PM on Washington Street, right outside of Impact Coffee -- featuring the Mike Munson! Special thanks to Viking State Bank for sponsoring the night.
The charm is in the simplicity: bring a lawn chair (or a blanket), find a patch of grass or a stretch of sidewalk, and settle in for an evening of great music and community spirit. And the best part — its free! Held on Thursday evenings throughout the summer (June-August), Lawn Chair Night transforms Downtown Decorah into a welcoming concert venue. Whether you’re a fan of bluegrass, jazz, folk, or hometown marching bands, the series features a wide range of musical acts that reflect the heart and soul of the region.
THIS WEEK: Mike Munson (Winona, MN) is a renowned guitarist with an unmistakable sound. His prolific catalogue of original songs weaves together threads from genres including indie folk, roots, jazz and improvised sounds.
Lawn Chair Night has been a program of Downtown Decorah Betterment for more than 25 years and is one of the community’s most beloved traditions as a weekly summer series of free outdoor concerts that brings locals and visitors together under the open sky. It's now made possible by DDBA in partnership with Visit Decorah Tourism, Decorah Area Chamber of Commerce, and Impact Coffee. The 2026 season is generously supported by top sponsors AJ Realty, Oneota Community Food Co-op, and ITC... along with 10+ supporting sponsors for specific nights throughout the season. This free, public event features both local and regional talent.
In the event of rain, the event will be moved inside Impact Coffee. Rain announcements will be made on Facebook's Visit Decorah page and the Downtown Decorah Betterment page.
