Cooperstown Concerts wrapped up our 56th season in April, completing an exciting lineup of popular events that drew over 1,200 people from across the region. The season featured seven diverse performances—six of which sold out—alongside outstanding audience reviews, popular food, beverage, and lodging offerings, and enriching educational content.

We appreciate every person who came to a show, and every sponsor, donor, and partner who supported us. Thanks to all for helping to keep the music playing!

Cooperstown Concerts presented a dynamic mix of jazz/funk, country, folk, Indian, rock and roll, and classical music concerts. Season highlights included three all-new events, each reflecting the nonprofit’s commitment to making an impact in different ways.
