The Location: Pennoyer Park Band Shell

The Sesquicentennial Bandshell in Pennoyer Park is a scenic location to enjoy live musical entertainment on the shore of Lake Michigan. The bandshell was dedicated on July 4, 1988 in commemoration of the 150th year of settlement of the City of Kenosha (which was officially in 1985). It was donated by citizens as a symbol of Kenosha’s history and progress. The dedication ceremony program included these words: “May all who enjoy this structure and its programs be inspired by the community’s heritage.” The Kenosha Pops Concert Band, the Tuesdays At The Shell concert series, the Peacetree Music Festival, and many other events draw music acts to the stage and an audience to the park throughout the summer months.

Kenosha Broadcasting Company (KBC), launched in January 2024, is committed to empowering and enlightening the community through high-quality, informative television programming. Born from a desire to turn adversity into positivity, KBC aims to be a beacon of inspiration and growth for its viewers. In keeping with its mission to uplift the community, KBC is proud to present Jamapalooza 2024, a vibrant music festival celebrating local talent and fostering a sense of togetherness. This event embodies KBC's dedication to enriching the lives of Kenosha residents and showcasing the best of what the city has to offer.
