Summer Series at the Amphitheater 2025
Volunteer Park Trust is thrilled to announce the return of our Summer Series—featuring none other than two-time Grammy Award winner Sara Gazarek! Back by popular demand, Sara and her band will once again grace the stage at our spectacular series of performances in the beautifully renovated Volunteer Park Amphitheater.
Her appearances over the past two years have been a standout highlight of the season, captivating audiences of all ages and helping to shape this celebration into a beloved summer tradition.
This year’s lineup continues the momentum with a stellar roster of the Pacific Northwest’s finest musicians and songwriters. Each evening promises unforgettable performances in Capitol Hill’s new cultural hub—Volunteer Park.
Our free concerts will be held every Thursday from July 10 to August 14, from 6 to 8:30 p.m. Our series kickoff on July 10, known as Picnic in the Park, will include kids’ activities and free ice cream.
Food trucks will be available at every concert. Check out the incredible lineup below, gather your friends and family, and join us in celebrating music, community, and summer in Seattle!
