Summer 2026 Music on the Green

July 2, 2026 – Music on the Green continues its 36th season this weekend as the Mariposa County Arts Council presents another round of free, live performances at the Mariposa County Art Park in downtown Mariposa.

Dirty Cello will make their Music on the Green debut on Friday, July 3. Dirty Cello is one of the few visiting bands on the lineup this year. Dirty Cello is a San Francisco based band that plays all over the U.S. and beyond. Don't expect typical Cello music, and be ready to rock!

The Soul Galaxy is ready to blow us away at the Art Park on Saturday, July 4 (the fourth of July!) As is tradition, the Soul Galaxy have played the Saturday closest to the fourth of July every year for as long as I can remember. Mariposa's number one rock and blues band, led by the incomparable Tim Hagar on lead electric guitar, with Jon Kidd on drums and vocals. Music on the Green will start an hour early at 5:00 P.M. on Saturday the 4th.
