The Hartford Jazz Society is proud to announce the live return of the summer Paul Brown Monday Night Jazz Series (PBMNJ) at Bushnell Park. This summer marks the 54th season that the Hartford Jazz Society has produced the popular Monday Night Series and is the longest running free jazz concert series in America. The series consists of six consecutive Monday evenings of live jazz in downtown Hartford’s Bushnell Park, featuring locally and internationally recognized musicians, all in a comfortable, relaxed outdoor setting. The 2021 Paul Brown Monday Night Jazz Series will run from July 12, 2021– August 16, 2021. All concerts are free and will be held at the Thomas D. Harris Pavilion at Bushnell Park in Hartford, CT.
