Greenwich Town Party Announces 2026 Lineup: Dave Matthews & Tim Reynolds, John Fogerty, Preservation Hall Jazz Band, Elmo

Greenwich Town Party has unveiled the artist lineup for its 2026 festival. Returning to Greenwich, Conn.’s Roger Sherman Baldwin Park on May 23, the storied community-forward event’s 15th anniversary preservation will welcome three top-tier acts, with Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds, John Fogerty and the Preservation Hall Jazz Band committed for the main stage.

Dave Matthews’ headline set will mark his second appearance at the Greenwich Town Party, following a surprise set at the festival’s second-annual staging in 2012. It’ll be his first show in Connecticut since the Dave Matthews Band’s two shows at Uncasville, Conn.’s Mohegan Sun Arena in November 2024, and the frontman’s first duo set with longtime acoustic collaborator Reynolds in the state since their show-closing set at 2022’s inaugural Sound on Sound in Bridgeport, Conn.

Fogerty is also a familiar face to Greenwich Town Party fans, who may recall his 2016 set at the festival. New Orleans’ storied Preservation Hall Jazz Band has been a fixture of the event in recent years. For children and families, the festival will set up a side-stage with the Sesame Street sing-along, Elmo’s Got the Moves.

The Greenwich Town Party is organized annually by the dedicated nonprofit organization Greenwich Town Party Inc. Prospective attendees can choose from Community, Neighbor, or Sponsor ticket tiers, the former being available exclusively to Greenwich residents and employees through a ticket lottery.
