2024 Eichelberger Concert Season Announced at the Levitt Pavilion Dayton

Friends of Levitt Pavilion Dayton is thrilled to announce the 2024 Eichelberger Concert Season. Audiences from across the Miami Valley will enjoy 44 free concerts beginning on May 30 with psychedelic soul band, Monophonics.

This season boasts a diverse array of genres and artists with some new and exciting things in store! New on the 2024 Eichelberger concert season is the Henny Penny Indie Vibe series highlighting artists that embody the independent spirit of alternative and indie genres.

The Levitt Dayton has also added the Amplified Series sponsored by the City of Dayton (formerly known as the City of Dayton summer music festivals). Now the team at the Levitt has taken over the programming and curation of these events, adding them to their summer concert season. The three Amplified concerts will be held on three Saturdays and begin at 5:30 p.m. instead of the normal 7 p.m. concert start time and feature a DJ, two openers and a headliner, amplifying blues, funk and Reggae genres of music.

Along with these additions, the Levitt Dayton will work with the community to celebrate a Juneteenth concert, a Pride Concert, and two new features added this year; concerts celebrating our veterans and our Indigenous communities. The Indigenous concert will be held in celebration of World Indigenous Day featuring two Indigenous artists.

“We are all really excited about this season,” said Lisa Wagner, executive director. “We have many returning audience favorites and many new-to-us artists that we can’t wait to share with you! The team has also been working so hard with our community to craft this new season, I’m extremely proud of what we have accomplished together.”

All concerts in the 2024 Eichelberger Concert Season begin at 7 p.m. (with the exception of select dates) and are free and open to the public, thanks to the generosity of the community. Levitt Dayton is located in Dave Hall Plaza in downtown Dayton and features lawn seating. Audience members can bring in their own lawn chairs and food and beverage – including alcohol, although glass is prohibited. There are also food and beverage vendors on site and lawn chair rental is available for a $5 donation.
