Support the magic of free music beneath the open sky and twinkling stars at Levitt Pavilion Arlington, a beautiful outdoor performing arts venue renowned for a dynamic series of free, well-produced concerts presented each spring, summer, and fall. Since its debut in 2008, Levitt has emerged as an important community gathering space and a popular destination for music fans across Dallas-Fort Worth, offering an annual lineup of live performances that showcase a diverse range of emerging and globally-known artists, along with free community and cultural celebrations. As one of Arlington's premier entertainment attractions, the Levitt is also a driver of local economic growth and the ongoing revitalization of downtown Arlington, while also making a substantial contribution to the North Texas arts ecosystem through the Levitt's "Share The Stage" initiative that books local artists as opening acts for Levitt concerts. During the 2023 season alone, more than 100,000 guests have enjoyed Levitt concerts and events, while thousands more have enjoyed live streamed Levitt shows from locations around the world. Levitt facilities are also available for rental for private celebrations, businesses, and area non-profit organizations, many of which use the Levitt spaces to host meetings, community outreach events, and fundraisers.   

Our Needs

In addition to volunteers for concerts and special events, the Levitt needs funding to support general operations—including artist fees, equipment purchase and maintenance, and security—and to complete payment for the recently-constructed Levitt Center, a hospitality area equipped with seating and A/V capabilities. 

Mission

Our mission:

The Levitt’s mission is to provide free, culturally diverse music that can be enjoyed by everyone while building community through music. We will achieve this through our music, programs, partnerships, and outreach.

Needs

Donations are needed to keep free music available in North Texas, including musician fees and program support for live free family-friendly concerts, special events and cultural celebrations!
