The Monterey Jazz Festival is proud to announce the sixth year of the “Evenings by the Bay” concert series, produced in collaboration with the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Taking place from June 29 – September 1 on Saturday and Sunday evenings from 6 p.m. – 8 p.m. at the Monterey Bay Aquarium on Cannery Row in Monterey in the Marine Mammal Gallery, the 20-performance concert series features some of the Monterey Peninsula’s most talented professional jazz musicians. The “Evenings by the Bay” series provides a much-needed outlet for live music, and enhanced value and entertainment for Aquarium visitors, already an internationally renowned destination for all ages. The concerts are included with regular admission to the Aquarium.

It seems like just yesterday construction was underway on Cannery Row to bring in a new, fashionable hotel to the struggling tourism hotbed along the beautiful Monterey Bay, but it's been five years since the InterContinental The Clement Monterey opened its doors to the public.  

The hotel isn't slowing down either.

Its C-side patio has introduced several enhancements and décor changes that make the delightful waterfront experience even more engaging.  An attractive glass addition surrounds a portion of the space, allowing unobstructed ocean views but providing  protection from gentle bay breezes. Stylish heaters add warmth and visual interest, and the new soft seating area provides a welcoming and comfortable environment to linger over small plates and a variety of beverages.
