The iconic venue in the heart of Hermann Park continues to present diverse artistic experiences, inviting visitors of all ages and backgrounds to see high-caliber plays, concerts, and other cultural programming at no cost.
“We’ve been so excited to see packed crowds under the canopy and on the Hill since kicking off the 2024 season in March,” said Managing Director Claudia de Vasco. “We’re thrilled to present local favorites like Festival Chicano and DaCamera and introduce audiences to new acts like Gangstagrass and Louisiana in TX produced by Full Gallop.”

Other highlights include Miller’s annual tradition Miller Summer Mixtape ’24, featuring performances and appearances by Kam Franklin, EZ Band, DJ Rob G, DJ Michelle McKnight; Huston Jazz Festival featuring James Francies and the return of a beloved Miller tradition, “Movies at Miller,” where families can enjoy films under the stars.
