Thursday nights just got a whole lot better! Jazz in the Park is back, presented by Johnson Financial Group, with 12 free nights of live music in Cathedral Square Park from June 4 through September 10 (excluding July 2, 9, and 16). Jazz is the soul of the series as always, and this year we've thrown in some nights that'll surprise you, from Billy Joel and Grateful Dead tributes to goth dance music and more.

New in 2026, Cathedral Square Market kicks things off at 3 PM each Thursday and continues through the evening, so come early, shop local, and stay for the music. Free and open to the public.
