The most widely recognized and attended program at Miller Plaza is the Nightfall Concert Series held for 17 weeks every Friday from Memorial Day weekend through the end of September. Begun in the summer of 1989, it is a program unique to Chattanooga, unmatched in other cities in terms of its consistency, frequency and quality.
A free concert series, Nightfall brings people to the city's center to enjoy a variety of nationally and internationally acclaimed musical artists ranging in genre from jazz, blues, folk, African, bluegrass and new age to Zydeco music. A local act is given the opportunity to open for the national headlining talent. The series also focuses on presenting a variety of professional artists who perform authentic ethnic or multi-cultural music not typically offered through live performances in Chattanooga.
Nightfall, which attracts an audience as diverse as its schedule of performers, has developed an appeal that extends beyond its natural attraction to music lovers. It has become the Friday night gathering place for people of all ages, races and social backgrounds. For more information, call the Chattanooga Downtown Partnership at 423/265-0771. |
