Ocean Grove is located on the Atlantic Ocean nestled between Asbury Park to the north and Bradley Beach to the south on the Jersey Shore. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, Ocean Grove is noted for its abundant examples of Victorian architecture, sprawling 'concession free' boardwalk, pristine beaches, and charming shopping/dining district.
Ocean Grove’s renowned “Great Auditorium,” which seats over 6,000 audience members, continues to be the focus of cultural life in Ocean Grove. Among the concerts filling the summer schedule are the acclaimed Summer Stars chamber music programs, which bring some of the finest classical musicians from Philadelphia and New York each Thursday night in July and early August. Saturday nights feature popular entertainment, including appearances by Johnny Mathis, ABBA, Linda Eder, the Beach Boys, and comedian Bill Cosby.
