About the event

Providence World Music Returns to 195 District Park for a Summer of Global Sounds


The 2025 season of Providence World Music is here! We’re thrilled to bring you six months of live music from around the globe, right in the heart of Providence at 195 District Park, with free concerts every first Thursday from May through October.


Now in its 8th year, the Providence World Music series celebrates the incredible diversity of our city and region, featuring artists whose music crosses borders, traditions, and genres. This season’s lineup showcases powerful voices and dynamic sounds—from Afropop, jazz, hip-hop, salsa, and soukous to folk, reggae, and experimental blends. Each month, we invite you to listen, sing, dance, and be transported by rhythms from across Africa, the Caribbean, Latin America, Asia, and beyond—performed by local and regional artists shaping the soundscape of Rhode Island and New England.


We’re kicking off this season next…
