The Levitt 2025 Season Reveal is here!

Levitt at the Falls is excited to announce our 2025 season reveal of free concerts in downtown Sioux Falls, presented by MarketBeat. Concerts will start on Friday, May 23 and run every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday night through August 30 with five select Saturday morning concerts for families.

The 2025 Levitt season of 50 free concerts features local, regional, national, and international acts of every musical style. From country to rock to throwback, this year’s lineup includes previous Levitt favorites and new finds.

“We are so excited for this year’s concert lineup at Levitt at the Falls,” Levitt President and CEO Nancy Halverson said. “We are bringing in hundreds of incredibly talented musicians, including some community favorites from previous years. This summer is chalked full of exciting artists that I can’t wait to share with everyone.” 

Concert Information

Each Levitt concert will include opening acts that start at 7 p.m., followed by a headlining band around 7:45 p.m. Each Levitt concert experience is complete with a variety of food vendors and drinks available through JJ’s Wine & Spirits. Additionally, Family Series performances will be held on 5 Saturday mornings throughout the summer with music starting at 10:30 am.

If you can’t make it to the lawn, join us for our live streams on Facebook and YouTube to experience the joy and energy of a Levitt concert no matter where you are.

Levitt concerts are made possible by the generous support of our community, including our season presenting sponsor, MarketBeat.

“We’re excited to continue our partnership with Levitt at the Falls and help bring another unforgettable summer of free live music to Sioux Falls,” Matt Paulson, Founder and CEO of MarketBeat, said. “There’s nothing better than seeing the lawn packed with families, friends, and neighbors all season long. We can’t wait to kick off another incredible lineup and see the community come out to enjoy it.”

Season Highlights

Opening night on Friday, May 23 will feature two-time GRAMMY-nominated artist Divinity Roxx, a genre-spanning artist who frequently plays bass for Beyoncé. She’ll be returning for a family show as Divi Roxx Kids on Saturday, May 24 at 10:30 a.m. Closing out the season on August 30 is high-energy, 9-piece funk and rock group Empire Strikes Brass.

This year, the Levitt will feature its first double-header performance. Due to popular demand, crowd favorite Brulé will take the Levitt stage on Friday, July 11 and Saturday, July 12 for two spectacular shows. As both Brulé experiences will be the same, we encourage audience members to select only one night to attend.

Other season highlights include the return of some Levitt favorites. Blues star Danielle Nicole will take the stage on Friday, June 27. Minneapolis-based Dessa returns to the Levitt with the South African 29:11 Ensemble on Saturday, August 9. We’re also welcoming back an Irish favorite: energetic Celtic group Socks in the Frying Pan on Saturday, August 2.

Festivals at the Levitt

Four festivals will take place throughout the Levitt season. We will be hosting the Festival of Cultures on June 14 in partnership with LSS of SD, featuring a headlining performance from Hot Peas ‘n Butter in the morning and world music group Espiral7 in the evening. Then join us on Saturday, June 28 for the That Sounds Decent festival featuring an evening of live performances by bands with local ties, including headliner Soulcrate. Join us as we celebrate the 35th anniversary of the signing of the Americans with Disabilities Act on Saturday, July 26 with blues group Johnny Wheels & The Swamp Donkeys. Also returning this year is the Mitakuye Owas’iƞ * All My Relatives * Mitákuye Oyás’iŋ Festival on August 23. Sponsored by the SDSU Wokini Initiative, the festival celebrates Native American music, art, and culture. Hoop dance duo The Sampson Brothers will kick off the festival with a Family Series show at 10:30 a.m., and Sioux Falls’ own Mato Wayuhi will take the stage for an evening concert.
