Concerts in the Park - The Michigan Nightingales

Promising a blend of the traditional gospel song and vocal arrangement on which their foundation was built, The Michigan Nightingales have a refreshing sound that both young and old will love and appreciate. Formed in 1972, The Michigan Nightingales have shared the stage at various venues with some of the world’s greatest gospel groups and singers.

Concerts in the Park is a program of the Arts Council of Greater Kalamazoo, with support from the Irving S. Gilmore Foundation, Kzoo Parks, WMUK, Encore Magazine, and the Michigan Arts & Culture Council. It is one of Kalamazoo’s long-standing traditions offered Sundays in June, July, and August in Bronson Park delivering a unique offering, unlike any other. Each concert is free and is friendly for the entire family. Picnic meals, blankets, or lawn chairs are encouraged.

There is not a rain site for Concerts in the Park. If inclement weather is expected the concert may be canceled by 2 pm on that same day.

On-street parking is available all around the perimeter of the park. Additional parking is nearby at the South Street Parking Garage.
