Summer in Seattle calls for spending as much time as possible in the sun, and what better incentive to do so than live outdoor musical entertainment? Below, we’ve compiled all the summer-long series (like KEXP’s Concerts at the Mural and the Chittenden Locks Summer Concert Series), festivals (like Capitol Hill Block Party and THING), and special concerts (like South Lake Union Block Party and the Seattle Chamber Music Society Summer Festival) taking place in the fresh air from June through September. If you’re planning by location, we’ve also included a list of outdoor music venues and their summer lineups. See them all below, and check out our music and outside calendars for even more options.
