The Midtown Men (from left, Christian Hoff, Michael Longoria, J. Robert Spencer and Daniel Reichard) will perform at Cousin Brucie’s sixth annual Palisades Park Reunion.

The Midtown Men, featuring four cast members of the original Broadway production of “Jersey Boys” — Christian Hoff, Michael Longoria, Daniel Reichard and J. Robert Spencer — will be among the performers at DJ Cousin Bruce’s sixth annual Palisades Park Reunion at the Meadowlands Fair, June 23 at 7 p.m.

The show, which will be broadcast live on SiriusXM satellite radio’s 60s on 6 channel, will also feature Freddy “Boom Boom” Cannon (who sang the 1962 hit, “Palisades Park”), The Dovells (“You Can’t Sit Down”), Barbara Harris of The Toys (“A Lover’s Concerto”), Lenny Dell and the Demensions (“Over the Rainbow”) and The Fifth Estate (“Ding Dong! The Wicked Witch Is Dead”).

Admission to the concert is included with regular fair admission.

The fair runs from June 21 to July 8 in the parking lot outside MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford. For information, visit njfair.com.
