Stern Grove Festival is returning in 2022 to celebrate its 85th season of hosting free concerts in the park. The festival kicks off June 12, with concerts every Sunday through August 14.

Stern Grove Festival will officially announce the line-up on May 3.

Unfortunately, the Grove suffered severe damage due to a massive flood this past summer, forcing the cancellation of the final concert and annual fundraiser in 2021, and leaving the fate of the 2022 season unknown. Thankfully, Stern Grove is fully back in 2022.

Like in 2021, advance reservations will be required in 2022. Free reservations for each concert open up 12 days before the show date at 2pm, and can be made through the Stern Grove website’s concert pages.

Stern Grove Festival is a beloved annual San Francisco summer tradition spanning 85 years and counting. Each summer, the Festival presents 10 free concerts featuring a curated mix of popular headliners, Rock & Roll Hall of Famers, Grammy Award-winners, and rising new stars. Past Festival performers include Joan Jett & the Blackhearts, Thundercat, Fitz & The Tantrums, The Isley Brothers, Smokey Robinson, Kool & the Gang, Janelle Monáe, Toots & the Maytals, Mavis Staples, The Psychedelic Furs, Mitski, Pink Martini, Ziggy Marley, Ozomatli, Digable Planets, Carlos Santana, Sheila E., and many more!

Stern Grove Festival also presents over 30 admission-free arts education programs for youth and young adults in San Francisco each year, fulfilling its mission to make live musical experiences accessible to all.
