Join us in Berkeley parks on seven Saturday afternoons this summer for live music concerts that cater to a variety of ages and tastes.<\/p>\n
Moms of all ages, those who want to celebrate them, or just jazz lovers, can head to the Berkeley Rose Garden on Saturday, May 10, for a pre-Mother\u2019s Day celebration\u00a0of live music, cold drinks, dessert, and flower giveaways.<\/p>\n
Toddlers can sing and dance along with an interactive performance with puppets. Kids up to age 12 might enjoy funk-rock from a costumed band with kid-friendly lyrics and themes.<\/p>\n
We also have concerts for those who revel in rock music, fans of funk, and supporters of soul. You can dance to Latin rhythms or, in our last concert on September 13, unwind with acoustic bluegrass by the Bay.<\/p>\n
We’ve spread the concerts across many Berkeley parks, from Shorebird Park on the waterfront to South Berkeley and up into the hills. At least one will be close to you. (You can still come to all). Some of our concerts will include food trucks. All will have live music performed amidst our community. \u00a0<\/p>\n
For details, see our events calendar<\/a> or the specific event links below.<\/p>\n Our Music in the Parks series offers local music, kids\u2019 activities, and entertainment, with some events featuring food, games, or guest speakers.<\/p>\n Come early to pick out your spot. No alcohol or controlled substances are allowed. Bring your blankets or low back chairs to enjoy the music.<\/p>\n When traveling around the city, consider\u00a0public transit<\/a>,\u00a0shared mobility options<\/a>, or carpooling with friends.<\/p>\n Community concerts are just one of a variety of events organized by the City’s\u00a0Parks, Recreation, and Waterfront Department<\/a>, which offers a variety of camps, classes, and activities catering to diverse age groups and socioeconomic backgrounds.
