Bring family, friends and picnics to downtown Covington for Sunset at the Landing, a free concert from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. featuring regional and touring artists performing jazz, bluegrass, folk, blues and more.

Sunset at the Landing concerts are free, outdoor performances typically held every third Friday in spring and fall on Covington's former Columbia Street boat landing, now a permanent performance stage overlooking scenic Bogue Falaya River. All are encouraged to bring refreshments and chairs or blankets for lawn seating. Some bench seating is also available.

Performing artists are generally announced one week before each concert on Covington's Office of Cultural Arts & Events' Facebook page as well as  SunsetattheLanding.org. The series is sponsored by Heritage Bank of St. Tammany, the City of Covington and the Covington Farmers Market. In the event of rain, cancellation will be announced on the day of the show at the City of Covington's Facebook page.
