Concert: Anita Baker

at Stern Grove

Glide Ensemble kicks off the concert with an inspiring blend of gospel, jazz, blues, pop and soul. The Family Stone, featuring Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Inductees and original founding members of Sly & The Family Stone, Cynthia Robinson, Jerry Martini, and Greg Errico, takes over with their funk-infused sound.

And to close the day, Stern Grove Festival is proud to present Anita Baker — multiple Grammy winner, composer, producer, and all-around superstar, this R&B legend is known for her hit-making sound and smooth vocals.

Today’s performance is dedicated to the memory of Rosalie M. Stern, donor of Sigmund Stern Grove to the people of San Francisco and founder of the Stern Grove Festival Association.

Pro Tip

"There is no public parking at Stern Grove, and street parking is limited. Avoid driving, and take the Muni M or K line to the St. Francis Circle Stop.

Check out more public transportation options here." — Vivek Patel

Pro Tip

"Parking and seating can be a pain to find so get there early and bring a blanket or something to sit on in case the ground is damp.

Totally worth it - and one of my favorite things to do in the summer." — Natalie Willis
