Levitt Pavilion is out with the first wave of free concerts for the 2026 season. The venue will host more than 40 free concerts and community events from May through early October.Notable Levitt debuts include Between Friends , Sunsquabi, Tiana Major9 and J. Roddy Walston The Automatic Band. There are also some favorites returning including Dessa, La Santa Cecilia, Rebirth Brass Band, Flobots and Shakedown Street. The venue also continuing partnerships with community organizations and leaders to co-create programs including Central City Operas musical showcase and Girls Rock Denver.We're lucky because Colorado is full of some of the greatest music talents over the country. So, these are bands we would probably be booking anyway, but we do find it to be really essential to support our local music ecosystem. We do that not only by booking local bands, but by having a career development pipeline with our paid internships that are also being posted this week, Jessi Whitten the director of audience development and partnerships at Levitt Pavilion, said.
