Happenlist take
Downtown's Thursday-night institution in Cathedral Square — twelve weeks of free live music, now expanded well beyond jazz, with a beer and wine bar and food vendors. The Cathedral Square Market runs 3–6pm right before. Note July 2, 9, and 16 are intentionally dark (Bastille Days and the July 4 stretch).
About
A free Thursday-evening concert series in downtown's Cathedral Square Park, and one of the city's longest-running summer traditions. The 2026 lineup spreads across genres — tributes, soul, funk, swing — closing with Goth Barge on September 10. Beer, wine, and food for sale; come early for the market. Three Thursdays in July are skipped on purpose.
