For the Music in the Parks series, St. Paul will offer outdoor concerts at several venues: Como Lakeside Pavilion, Mears Park and Como Park Zoo and Conservatory. The full lineup can be found on the city's website, but the series includes the Twin Cities Jazz Festival on June 23 and 24, headlined by Paquito D'Rivera and the Dizzy Gillespie Afro Latin Experience and others, as well as Lowertown Sounds, which starts June 1 and runs most weeks through Aug. 24.

St. Paul will also offer "Safe Summer Nights" three times in June and twice a month in July and August. The city said the program "is designed to provide opportunities for police officers to become acquainted with residents of the neighborhoods they serve over a meal rather than during times of trouble." Food and activities for children will be offered at each event. Check the schedule by clicking here.
