City Park Jazz Free Concerts

City Park Jazz is back for summer 2026! June 28 \- Shane Endsley and the Denver Municipal Band\. A collaboration that brings together jazz and large ensemble arrangements\. \(6\-8 pm\) This year’s series carries a deeper meaning for the Denver community. Just weeks before the season kickoff, the historic City Park bandstand, originally built in 1929, was destroyed in an early morning fire. The structure, which has hosted the concert series for decades, was deemed a total loss due to significant damage. Despite this setback, organizers have confirmed that all 10 weeks of City Park Jazz will continue as planned as part of the event’s 40th anniversary season. Efforts are already underway to secure a mobile stage and necessary equipment to keep the tradition going. The setting may look a little different this year, but the music and the experience remain.
