About Waterside Pavilion at the Calvert Marine Museum
Waterside Pavilion is an iconic open-air concert space on the Calvert Marine Museum campus in Solomons, Maryland. Since 1995, the Waterside Music Series has brought major acts to this scenic waterfront venue, attracting fans from across the region. The pavilion blends outdoor ambiance with modern staging, offering a memorable setting for live performances along the Chesapeake Bay. Whether you’re planning a family night out or a dedicated music fan's trip, we’ve got you covered with practical details to help you secure seats smoothly.
Capacity and layout strike a balance between expansive outdoor terraces and reserved seating options. With a total capacity of up to 5,500 seats plus up to 1,500 standing-room tickets for outdoor concerts, there are flexible choices for different show formats. Seating is organized by sections and terraces, and some performances offer reserved seating in addition to general-admission standing areas. Check the event’s seating chart via our ticketing partners for the exact configuration on your date.
Parking is convenient but limited, with concert parking across the street in Glascock Field for the best available price per vehicle and handicapped parking in designated lots. Additional public parking is nearby, making it easy to plan a quick entry and exit. Since there is no dedicated transit service listed by the venue, driving or ridesharing is typically the most practical option for most concertgoers.
Solomons offers a variety of nearby lodging and dining options to enhance your visit. The Hilton Garden Inn Solomons, Solomons Inn Resort & Marina, and other local spots provide comfortable stays within a short drive of the pavilion. Note that Holiday Inn Solomons Conference Center & Marina has been reported as closed in recent times. For dining, waterfront restaurants and casual eateries around Solomons Harbor deliver fresh seafood and Chesapeake-inspired fare to complement your concert experience.
Waterside Pavilion’s most notable moments include performances by country and rock legends such as Brothers Osborne, Toby Keith, Kane Brown, ZZ Top, Earth, Wind & Fire, and Elle King. The venue has undergone naming changes due to sponsorships and underwent a rebuild in 2014 to maintain a top-tier outdoor concert experience. When you’re ready to secure your seats, we’ll help you find the best available option for the date you want, whether that means reserved seating, general admission, or standing-room access.
