ABOUT US
Who We Are
Every summer for the past 33 years, people
throughout Fairfield County and beyond have come
to the Pavilion with picnics, blankets and lawn
chairs to enjoy the high-quality, free-of-charge
evening's entertainment. The Levitt Pavilion for
the Performing Arts is a non-profit, open-air
summer festival where a variety of entertainment
is presented virtually every night in our
beautifully landscaped amphi-theater, located on
the banks of the Saugatuck River.
What We Do
The Pavilion serves as an unequaled showcase
for both established and emerging talent,
offering between 50 and 60 nights of FREE
entertainment from mid-June through August, with
specific days of the week having a special
program focus.

professional lighting give the Pavilion a
world-class presentation.
How We Do It
Foundation grants, corporate sponsorships,
individual support, and a select number of
special ticketed events serve to provide the
necessary funding for the free programming. The
annual summer Gala, featuring such international
favorites as Willie Nelson, The Gipsy Kings, Ray
Charles, Tony Bennett, and The Chieftains, along
with the Stars on Tour Series not only enhance
the schedule of nightly programs at the
Pavilion, but generate the income that is so
essential to the operation of the Pavilion.
