August 28 – August 30, 2026 · 11 events
This weekend in Davenport, Iowa brings 11 live events across the city — from music. Here's what's on.
Davenport anchors the Quad Cities with a live events scene shaped by the Mississippi River and a genuine jazz birthright — cornet legend Bix Beiderbecke was born here, and the Bix Beiderbecke Memorial Jazz Festival has honored him for decades, alongside the famous Bix 7 road race each July. The Adler Theatre hosts touring concerts and Broadway in a restored Art Deco hall, while the Raccoon Motel has earned a regional cult following for booking indie acts you would expect in cities ten times this size. Riverfront parks host summer festivals, and the legendary barn shows at Codfish Hollow are a short drive upriver.
2 events are listed for Sunday, including Beloit Sky Carp at Quad Cities River Bandits at Modern Woodmen Park, MV Blues Society Presents Rick Estrin & The Night Cats Live at Gypsy Highway at Gypsy Highway. Events that start earlier in the weekend may still be running Sunday; open an event for its current schedule.
