The Vanguard Jazz Orchestra's advertised Monday residency is a strong reason to plan a Monday around music. Check the actual calendar and ticket before making it the centerpiece; a recurring residency can still have exceptions.
Recurring information recently checked. Last checked 2026-10-15; city timezone America/New_York. No listing here is confirmed for tonight or for every future monday.
A specific long-running program makes Monday useful on its own terms, rather than a weaker version of Saturday.
Use the time printed on the purchased ticket; normal sets are 20:00 and 22:00. A café first works for the late set.
