Big Band & Jazz is a Lexington summer concert series every Tuesday night starting at 7 pm. Concert goers can enjoy a weekly picnic while listening to live music from big bands or jazz performers in local parks. Patrons should bring a lawn chair or blanket for seating.
The concerts run May through August, and this year they take place at two locations. May & June concerts will be held at Moondance Amphitheater in Beaumont Centre Circle, while July & August concerts will be held at Ecton Park off Turkey Foot Rd.
