Music Under the Stars

Music Under the Stars is a beloved summer tradition at the Toledo Zoo, featuring free outdoor concerts in the Zoo's historic Amphitheatre. Each Sunday evening, you'll enjoy live performances from a rotating lineup of regional bands—including everything from patriotic music and rock to jazz and symphonic performances. The series runs through early August, with gates opening at 6 p.m. and the Amphitheatre opening at 6:30 p.m., with concerts beginning at 7:30 p.m. This is a great option for families looking for budget-friendly entertainment on a summer evening. Food and beverages are available for purchase on-site. Both the Anthony Wayne Trail and Broadway entrances will be open, and Zoo members enjoy complimentary parking. Standard parking rates apply for non-members. Since admission is completely free, it's an accessible way to enjoy live music while spending time at the Zoo grounds.
