Dupont Brass live in Washington

Experience Dupont Brass live on August 5th

Dupont Brass is scheduled to perform at Woodrow Wilson Plaza in Washington, D.C. on August 5, 2026. The ensemble is known for its energetic performances blending New Orleans brass band traditions with elements of funk, hip-hop, and contemporary jazz. Their instrumentation typically includes trumpets, trombones, saxophone, sousaphone, and a drum set, creating a sound characterized by strong rhythmic grooves and improvisational solos. The group frequently performs both original compositions and arrangements of popular songs across various genres.

Woodrow Wilson Plaza is a public space located in front of the Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center, situated near the National Mall. Originally constructed in the early 1970s as part of the Southwest Redevelopment Project, the plaza has served as a site for various public gatherings, demonstrations, and events over the years. It’s named for President Woodrow Wilson, though it wasn’t formally dedicated to him until after his death in 1924; however, its association primarily stems from its proximity to federal buildings and its role as a space for civic engagement within the nation’s capital. The plaza features open pavement areas alongside landscaping and is designed to accommodate large crowds.
