Shadyside Porch Concerts RSVP

Porch Concerts 2023

Join us for another festive season of great music in good company. Monique and Tino have put together a four-week season featuring some of Pittsburgh finest ensembles from various genres.

Bring a lawn chair, some drinks, and a couple of friends and set up on the lawn or driveway starting at 6:30 PM. Concerts begin at 7 PM and run about an hour. Children are welcome, but please keep pets on the sidewalk.

Admission is free, and donations are gratefully accepted. This year, donations will fund Azure’s school programs, bringing music to children with autism and multiple disabilities. Donations will also support Lullaby Project Pittsburgh, a program that pairs musicians with parents at risk to create personalized lullabies for their babies.

People from all neighborhoods are welcome! Please RSVP for concerts of your choice to receive concert reminders and updates in case of weather.
