[Free concerts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cabbagetown-festival) will be held in NYC every Wednesday night from June 10 to July 15. Considered to be the next guitar god by the [Rolling Stones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rolling-stones-bitmoji-show-lens), Kaki King will be performing among other music sensations such as The Budos Band, Jay Reatard, Ticklah, and more. Check out the video to see how amazing Kaki King is. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.9/10 - Popularity: 8% | Activity: 72% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Live Arts](https://www.trendhunter.com/livearts) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Free Summer Concerts:** Provide free access to high-quality concerts featuring up-and-coming musicians, which could lead to greater exposure and monetization opportunities. - **Music Festivals in Public Spaces:** Expand the popularity of free music events in popular and accessible public areas, leading to greater tourism and economic development. - **Virtual Concerts:** Leverage technology to create and broadcast free concerts online, expanding access to audiences around the world. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Live Music:** Organize free concerts, leading to increased demand for live music and related services such as event planning and equipment rental. - **Destination Marketing:** Partner with local businesses and tourism bureaus to promote free concert series as a way to attract visitors and increase spending. - **Streaming Services:** Partner with music festivals and concert venues to livestream free events, expanding the platform's content and reach. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Outdoor Singalong Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-rock-and-roll-playhouse.md) - [Rock Climbing Festivals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rock-climbing-festivals-the-north-face-will-host-its-climb-festival-at-nycs.md) - [Free Tennis Tournament Events](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/us-open-fan-week.md) - [Wine-Backed Concert Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jacksontriggs-niagara-estate-amphitheatre.md) - [Toronto Landmark Music Events](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/music-in-the-park.md) - [Album-Centric Pop-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bandlab-x-d4vd.md) - [Live Music Finders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ckord.md) - [Unique Illuminated Performances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/candlelight.md) - [App-Assistive Concert Discoveries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/concert-discovery-feature.md)
