Every summer at North Plaza, students, faculty, and alumni from Berklee College of Music and Boston Conservatory at Berklee perform free concerts as part of the Berklee Summer in the City concert series. The performances take place through the end of September. The series presents a variety of genres, including folk, jazz, R&B, Latin, pop, and opera as part of its programming. Notable performers include electronic duo Sleeping Lion, metal and jazz vocalist and composer Haydee Irizarry, Panamanian saxophonist Samuel Batista, R&B performer Kyle Thornton, and Madagascar-born vocalist Niu Raza.
