August Moon Jazz is the mid-August show and a returning title from the 2026 season. Late summer, full pavilion, and the point in the year where the regulars and the sitters-in have been playing together long enough to take some real chances.
Every show in this season is an Open Stage. Jazzmania holds the rhythm section and core lineup, and musicians and vocalists are invited to join us and perform with the band. Bring a horn, bring a chart, or bring a tune you want to sing — the format is the same one that carried the 2026 season, and it makes for a different show every time.
The Cascades at Stone Manse is the open-air pavilion in Allegheny County's South Park. Free admission, no tickets required — bring a folding chair, a blanket, snacks, and the kids. The show streams live and free on The Encore for anyone who cannot make it out.
