This series of FREE, one-hour pops concerts held in the Bradley Pavilion of the Marcus Performing Arts Center (929 N Water St in Milwaukee) is geared towards children and families.  Each concert has narration and music selections that are lively, tell a story, or demonstrate the colors of the orchestra. Sometimes audience members even get to conduct the orchestra!

Dress is casual, and there is both open floor seating in front of the orchestra and traditional seating in the rear of the hall.  Pajamas, teddy bears, and blankets are welcome!  Pajama Jamborees are best suited for children in K4 through fifth grade, but they are fun for young and not-so-young audience members alike!

Pajama Jamboree concerts begin at 7:00pm, and doors open at 6:30pm.  No tickets or reservations are required.
