SF’s Yerba Buena Gardens Festival 2025
The 2025 Yerba Buena Gardens Festival hosts a full lineup of free outdoor music, theater, circus, dance, poetry, and children’s programs. The Festival opens on Saturday, May 10, 2025 with La Santa Cecilia to kick off its 25th Anniversary Season.
Mentored by guitar masters John Scofield and John Abercrombie, Ila Cantor made the move from New York City to the East Bay a few years ago and quickly fell in with some of the region’s most creative improvisers. A gifted composer and evocative singer/songwriter, she possesses a cool, rounded tone and a fiercely lyrical sensibility. Sought out as a collaborator by some of jazz’s leading figures, she’s a Bay Area star in the making, a guitarist in the midst of building a vivid musical world encompassing a vast constellation of influences.
