The Northampton Arts Council and the City of Northampton are thrilled to announce the return of Parties in the Park, the city’s free weekly outdoor DJ and dance series!

Every Wednesday evening from July 8 through August 26, 2026, Pulaski Park will transform into a vibrant, open-air dance floor celebrating community, music, and the cultural vitality of downtown Northampton.

Hosted by the incomparable Russell Caldwell, the 2026 season features an eclectic, rotating cast of premier regional DJs spinning everything from reggae and global beats to classic soul, rare grooves, and disco.
