Event Details

City Center Bishop Ranch in San Ramon is bringing smooth jazz to the Bay Area with a free outdoor concert series this July. The series continues on July 19 with keyboardist Brian Simpson and saxophonist Jackiem Joyner. Both chart-topping smooth jazz artists bring star power to the stage, with careers that include collaborations with legends like Dave Koz, Janet Jackson and Keiko Matsui. Together, they promise an unforgettable evening of dynamic performances and genre-defining sound.

For a premium experience, you can enjoy reserved seating in front of the stage by booking a prix fixe meal before the show at one of our participating restaurants: LB Steak, The Slanted Door, or Alora Social. Alternatively, enjoy patio seating at a City Center restaurant during the show (note that visibility may be limited), or grab dinner to go and enjoy it on the lawn in Alexander Square. Beer, wine, and cocktails will also be available for purchase.

Disclaimer: Please double check event information with the event organizer as events can be canceled, details can change after they are added to our calendar, and errors do occur.
