These performances are held in the serene outdoor setting of the Trapp Family Lodge Concert Meadow. Gates open for picnicking two hours prior to show time!

Stowe Performing Arts also hosts the free Stowe Gazebo Concerts on Tuesdays from July 21st to August 11th. These concerts—by local bands Stolen Moments, The Nisht Geferlach Klezmer Band, Community Military Bands, and Prydein— promise to entertain listeners alike with their sweet summertime melodies and laid back feel. These concerts begin at 6:30 on the lawn at the Helen Day Art Center.

The 36th annual Vermont Mozart Festival will hold concerts in Stowe on July 26, August 2, and August 9.

From August 20 to 22, Stowe welcomes the Music Festival of the Americas at Stowe.

The festival includes three different concerts with music varying in style from jazz to Tchaikovsky, and performed by the exclusive Philharmonic Orchestra of the Americas Chamber Ensembles. The event will be held at the Topnotch Resort and ticket packages are currently available.

Stowe's summer concert series concludes on September 6 when Stowe Performing Arts presents the United Air Force Liberty Jazz Band. Made up of 18 musicians from around the country, the Liberty Big Band takes pride in preserving the heritage of America's true art form -- jazz.
