Join Us for a Landmark Season!
The 20th season of the St. Augustine Music Festival marks two decades of extraordinary performances, artistry, and community. Over two weekends—June 19–21 and June 26–28, 2026—audiences will once again gather inside the historic Cathedral Basilica to experience free concerts of world-class chamber music that celebrate both tradition and innovation.
This milestone year will feature returning favorites and new guest artists, including pianist Chelsea Wang and other acclaimed performers soon to be announced. Join us as we honor twenty years of unforgettable music-making that continues to entertain, educate, and elevate through music.
We invite you to be part of this historic celebration—free and open to the public—and thank you for your continued support of the St. Augustine Music Festival.
