Where:
Naumburg Bandshell, Central Park, NYC

Stella Blue’s Band is back for the third annual Free Dead in the Park concert to benefit Riverkeeper, presented exclusively by RISE Cannabis. Following in the footsteps of the Grateful Dead over 50 years ago, Stella will take to the same stage at the Naumburg Bandshell for two sets of Grateful Dead tunes to raise awareness and funds to help clean the Hudson River.

Come dance, enjoy, and gather with friends and family at this all-ages show. You do not need a ticket – just show up, because thanks to our sponsors, it’s *Free* Dead in the Park.

Wear a piece of Jerry history: This year’s official Free Dead in the Park 2022 shirt features the iconic photo of Jerry Garcia taken by famed Grateful Dead photographer Rosie McGee while standing on the same stage in 1968 where the show will go down on Tuesday, May 17. Pre-order yours with a $45 donation to Riverkeeper, or save $5 and pre-order for pickup at the show and stay to enjoy some great music and company! 

This show is proudly and exclusively presented by the good folks at RISE Cannabis, with help from Friends of Free Dead in the Park, the Morgan Le Fay Dreams Foundation, John and Rachel Cahill, Scott Schaevitz, Alex Blavatnik, Glenn Hutchins, James Atwood and Leslie Williams and, of course, The Capitol Theatre. We’d also like to thank Brian Woodruff Artworks for his beautiful art and graphic contributions to this event.
