Originally called the Ohio Valley Jazz Festival when it was first held in 1962, the Cincinnati Music Festival has grown and evolved into a spectacular three-day event on Cincinnati's riverfront.

Past performers include Aretha Franklin, Duke Ellington, Miles Davis, Luther Vandross, Gerald Levert, Patti Labelle, New Edition, Earth Wind and Fire, Lakeside, Whitney Houston, Stevie Wonder, Janet Jackson and many others.

The festival has been held at various sites through its nearly 60 year history, including French Lick Indiana, the Carthage Fairgrounds, and the Hamilton County Fairgrounds before landing at its current home in Paycor Stadium on Cincinnati's river front.

LEVITY x TAPE B: SUMMER PROGRAM Tour
Presented by PNC Pavilion at PNC Pavilion Cincinnati, OH
Two of electronic music’s most explosive forces are joining together for a massive summer amphitheater takeover across America. Florida-based bass phenomenon Tape B and Chicago-bred electronic trio Levity have announced the Tape B x Levity: Summer Program Tour, a 12-city co-headline North American amphitheater run set for Summer 2026. The Summer Program Tour will bring the duo’s high-energy, genre-blurring performances to Cincinnati’s PNC Pavilion on Saturday, July 25. The tour marks a defining moment for both artists as they continue their meteoric rise from festival favorites to full-scale headliners. Collectively, Tape B and Levity enter the tour with a combined digital audience of nearly one million fans and over 1.4 million monthly Spotify listeners, underscoring the scale and demand behind this co-headline run. The pairing feels inevitable. Tape B and Levity have repeatedly ignited crowds together through collaborative moments and back-to-back performances, most notably under their fan-coined alias “Levity B” to close out festivals like Electric Forest, Lollapalooza, and Elements. Now, for the first time, the two acts unite for a full co-headline tour and plan on delivering a nightly collision of cinematic production, nostalgic bass, and emotionally charged drops built for summer stages. For Tape B, the tour arrives following one of the fastest ascents in modern bass music. Known for his nostalgic yet forward-thinking sound, Tape B has sold out almost every headline show in nearly every state across North America over the last 24 months, surpassed 1 million monthly Spotify listeners, and earned co-signs from scene leaders…

Dogberry and Verges are Scared
Presented by Cincinnati Shakespeare Company at The Otto M. Budig Theater Cincinnati, OH
Experience Shakespeare’s beloved comedy Much Ado About Nothing from the point of view of Messina’s most misguided watchmen, Dogberry and Verges. Armed with lanterns, loyalty, and very little logic, these unlikely heroes blunder their way to a happy conclusion for all. Off stage, Benedick and Beatrice spar their way toward the aisle, while our bumbling constables take center stage. As they patrol the periphery, they stumble into a brand-new adventure fueled by paranoia, pride, and plenty of nonsense. This World Premiere buddy comedy will warm your heart and leave you laughing long after the lanterns go out. This project is supported by the generosity of tens of thousands of contributors to the annual ArtsWave Campaign, the Cincinnati region's primary source for arts funding.
