Due to the risk of strong wind gusts, tonight's Cathedral Square Market is cancelled. With so many tents on site, we don't want to risk it.

As for Jazz in the Park, the show will go on, in one way or another!
The band is ready to play, rain or shine. Should conditions become severe, our friends at electriclimetaqueria at 811 N Jefferson St have graciously opened up their back room and stage for an indoor show!

We are monitoring the weather closely and will have an update on tonight's Jazz in the Park concert on socials and our website, closer to show time.

Regardless, we'll see everyone back in the park next Thursday, June 18 for Cathedral Square Market at 3 PM and Respect! A Tribute to The Queen of Soul at 6 PM.

Whether you make it to Cathedral Square, there are many wonderful bars and restaurants within close proximity to the park, many who will have live music, including Foy’s, BLU at Pfister and Saint Kate’s
