Jewel City Fall Concert Series Free Performances Every Saturday on the Artsakh Paseo in Glendale

2025 Jewel City Concert Series Brings Live Music to Downtown Glendale This Fall.

The Jewel City Concert Series returns this fall with five consecutive Saturdays of live music on the Artsakh Paseo, located at 127 Artsakh Avenue in Glendale’s Downtown Arts & Entertainment District. From September 27 through October 25, the community is invited to gather at 5:00 PM each Saturday for an eclectic mix of performances that reflect Glendale’s creative spirit and cultural diversity.

“The Jewel City Concert Series is part of our ongoing commitment to enliven the Artsakh Paseo and create meaningful cultural experiences in Downtown Glendale,” said Director of Glendale Library, Arts & Culture, Lessa Pelayo-Lozada. “The series highlights the creative talent within our community and adds something special to Saturday nights, bringing people together through music in a setting that feels uniquely Glendale.”

Presented by the City of Glendale Library, Arts & Culture Department and sponsored by the Arts and Culture Commission through funding from the Urban Art Program, the series brings neighbors, families, and friends together for a casual evening of live music in the heart of the city. Each concert turns the Paseo into a welcoming outdoor space where people can unwind, connect, and enjoy the rhythm of the city.

Concertgoers are encouraged to arrive early to explore the surrounding district and support local businesses before the music begins. All performances are free and open to the public. Attendees are welcome to bring their own chairs, as seating is not provided. Performances run approximately 60 minutes without intermission.

This year’s lineup includes:

• Saturday, September 27: TriosynThesis – Armenian / Word Jazz
• Saturday, October 4: Low Poly Cactus – Jazz Fusion Funk
• Saturday, October 11: The Guest Room – Indie Pop / R&B
• Saturday, October 18: Marzoña – Rock
• Saturday, October 25: Maria De La Vega and the Wayward Five – Jazz and Blues
