Insider tips:
Jazz in the Garden gets crowded, but it’s a lot of fun and a great place to meet peers and young professionals. They have food and drinks available at the Pavilion snack shack, and pop-up bars set up around the grounds allow guests to cater to their alcoholic beverage needs without fail. Guests may bring in their own picnic style food and drinks; however Park Police will confiscate any alcohol they find. Swing by the SIN member area for free food, drinks, contests and giveaways every week – and make sure you arrive early if you’re trying to stake out claim for space to accomodate you and your friends.
