The PBJ and Jazz Concert Series is back at the Lincoln Theater for the 2025/2026 season of Jazz Academy’s concert series.
PBJ and Jazz concerts are 1 hour long interactive and casual concerts intended to introduce young children and their families to jazz and American music, and feature some of Columbus’ finest musicians and ensembles.
Kids can dance, sing, and may have a chance to interact with the performers and their instruments.
Due to demand there will be two concerts on each date, the first at 10 a.m. and the second at 11:30 a.m. The cost is $6.29 per person, with a $23.81 max per family.

I’m sorry for the error. When initially scheduled/published a few months ago these were all set to be held at the Lincoln Theatre. The December one was moved to the Library, and we weren’t aware of that. The rest of the series are still scheduled for the Lincoln Theatre as they always are for the winter season. We always include links so readers can verify information for any changes.
