Chris Botti is scheduled to perform at the Argyros Performing Arts Center in Ketchum, Idaho on August 2nd, 2026. Botti is a Grammy Award-winning trumpeter and composer known for his blend of smooth jazz, pop, and classical influences. His musical style often features lyrical melodies, sophisticated arrangements, and a focus on instrumental performance; he frequently incorporates vocalists into his concerts. Throughout his career, he has collaborated with prominent artists across genres including Sting, Barbra Streisand, and Paul Simon.

The Argyros Performing Arts Center opened in November 2021 following a significant renovation of the former Ketchum High School auditorium. The project was spearheaded by a community fundraising effort led by local philanthropists Harry and Marlene Argyros, who contributed substantially to its creation. The center aims to serve as a regional hub for performing arts, hosting a diverse range of events including concerts, theater productions, dance performances, and film screenings. It boasts a 500-seat main hall designed for optimal acoustics and sightlines. The building also includes flexible spaces for smaller gatherings and educational programs related to the arts.
