This summer, Harlem Park porches will become stages as PARITY presents Porch Concerts, a free outdoor concert series designed to celebrate Baltimore music, art, community and neighborhood connection.

Hosted on the 500 block of N. Carrollton Avenue, the PARITY Porch Concerts summer series will invite neighbors, creatives, families and music lovers to gather for live performances, curated DJ sets and summer evenings rooted in community. The series is curated by Brianne Latrice and presented by PARITY, with a goal of creating an accessible cultural experience that uplifts local talent while bringing people together in one of Baltimore’s historic neighborhoods.

The concerts will offer an intimate outdoor setting where residents and visitors can enjoy live music from Baltimore artists, connect with neighbors and experience the energy of Harlem Park. Guests are encouraged to bring lawn chairs, blankets, friends and “great energy” as they settle in for evenings of music and community celebration.

The 2026 concert lineup begins Thursday, June 11, with a performance by Black Assets and a DJ set by Queen HD. The opening concert will be held in celebration of Pride Month and is co-sponsored by Baltimore City LGBTQ Affairs.

The series continues Thursday, July 9, with a performance by Tyler Moonlight and a DJ set by Keeks. The final concert of the summer will take place Thursday, August 13, featuring a performance by Kenyatta Band and a DJ set by Mr. Vershawn.

Each concert will take place from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. on the 500 block of N. Carrollton Avenue. Admission is free, but guests are asked to RSVP in advance.

In addition to live outdoor performances and DJ sets, attendees can expect a community-centered atmosphere, local vendors and the vibrant neighborhood energy that helps make Baltimore’s creative culture unique. The porch concert format is designed to transform everyday spaces into gathering places, creating opportunities for people to experience music in a welcoming, accessible and familiar environment.

PARITY Porch Concerts is free and open to all. Community members are invited to come as they are, bring their own chairs and blankets, and enjoy an evening that celebrates Baltimore creativity, culture and connection.
