piano is by the checkouts

Pretty well in tune. I played it when the music wasn’t working in the coffee shop.

There is a Ding Tea right next the piano and a bunch of tiny Claw Machines

still there July 2025. You might need permission to play the grand piano in the lobby however i've played multiple times without them saying anything. The 3rd floor piano, the one near the giftshop is publicly available to play though

Public outdoor piano at Stanford University outside Braun Hall.

Donated sometime between 2020 and 2022

Home to a total of 3 pianos (two uprights and one baby grand). The baby grand is in rough shape, however, the two uprights are in decent, playable condition.

The piano is there, but I have no idea what their policy is on public use.

Beautiful Baby grand

Piano in central eating area.

Nice mahogany Kawai on the Pool/ Restaurant level of the Intercontinenta. Exit elevator and proceed through double doors into restaurant foyer. Usually available during restaurant closure times.

a very sweet Kawai at gate D1

Tuned, some dead keys

You will have to ask the bar tender for the bench. The pedals are a bit wonky but overall it works. The keys work better than the one in C gate.

There is a hallway of the second floor lined with practice rooms. No food or drink (except water). Technically for students/faculty only, but if they aren't full and you don't cause any trouble, it's highly unlikely anyone will bother you. There are maybe ten or twelve rooms, each with a piano, bench. Amazing place!

It's located in the Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts' Plaza!

Grand piano near the stage.

Underneath the terrace right in front of the 1010 building

Some of the keys are stuck

pedal kind of bad. steely sound. chrisitians may come up and try to convert you.

Stolen from Worcester

Very old upright piano. No permission required to play.

Middle c is broken - plays the wrong sound. It’s a digital piano and finicky.

The piano has a pretty heavy action and a nice rich sound and in tune. For some reason I forgot the brand but I’m pretty sure it’s a Boston Grand. It’s in the North West side of the mall. Near Dillards and a parking garage.

If you ask nicely they will let you play :)

Open to the public. Not a permanent installation, but there for Summer 2025

Might be only for University students. Otherwise, the piano is in a space with somewhat good acoustics.

Inside near the middle of the bar. Plays well.

If piano is covered, ask staff inside the office to remove it

Right in front of the main entrance

Decent upright piano, has a waterproof cover and a house.

Seen on January 12th 2025 (Shmoocon event), they had removed it from the lobby and put it in storage, but someone convinced them to move it back into the lobby. Baby grand, some cosmetic damage but in good mechanical order, could have used a tuning but not too bad.

It’s an assisted living facility and they have 2 pianos. They welcome any live music between 9am and 8pm!!

It is on the bottom floor down some stairs. There is an elevator too.

not sure why it's near a library when they're supposed to be quiet (you should DEFINITELY play the opening of rhapsody in blue at max volume at 9 pm on a monday)

Upright

Upright

Baby Grand

Not sure if anyone is allowed to play it

Piano is up a spiral staircase near the ordering counter on a small platform.

Good condition minus a broken pedal and one key that doesn’t work. You’ll also have to pull up a chair from the lobby (unless you want to play while standing).

This piano is still available

Piano inside the Meow Wolf Grapevine exhibit, decently in tune but some keys are starting to fail.

This is in one of the greenhouses with plants- you can ask the workers to find it. It is a very pretty upright piano

Located in the chapel next to the office which is empty most days and available for use when asked. Piano is a 1980s Baldwin Spinet, reasonably in tune though hammers on the lower notes are in need of revoicing.

Services are on Thursday 5:30pm and Sunday 9 and 10:30 AM. You can visit in between then during the office hours of 8am to 4pm and ask the front office desk to use it, which they allow anyone to do when available. It's a Baldwin Grand Prix and reasonably in tune.

It’s a bit out of tune, and the hammer has been broken off one of the keys. But it sounds great for playing boogie woogie!

Keyboard with the body of a grand piano. Great condition.

In pretty rough condition

In good condition! Lobby of the medical center

Ice cream for sale and sitting area. Welcomes performances by proficient players as well as noodling kids.

A nice baby grand

A donated Upright piano. Outside of TSA security, accessible to public.

Just ask staff if it’s okay to play. They may have performers playing already.

Open for 15 minute reservation every other Friday for Riverside library card holders

Headphones are required, so you'll have to bring your own (open M-F)

Upright piano that has been painted blue.

Budget Motel run by Germans but clean and friendly. I did not mind staying here. The detuned crappy upright piano is in the lobby. He requested Mozart but did not care how long I played. I think if you bring some beer you can get a sing a long going.

Piano Thrift Store. LOTS OF PIANOS. They are tuned and the clerk lets you play whatever you want as long as you want, even the "do not touch" pianos.

Upright.

Plinky old upright, and a little out of tune with no bench but you can pull up a chair if you are tall.

Kohler and Campbell Baby Grand in the Lobby near the restaurant.

Marked "Schenley Park Public Piano Project"

Located in the tulip field as of March 2024. Ride the tractor wagon and you will pass by it.

An old brown Steinway, maybe 6'. Somewhat out of tune. In the lobby. Free to play, apparently. There are wipes: clean it when finished. It's not technically a public area so they may boot you if you're not there for a reason. It's in a lobby that's often staffed, so it would not be polite to practice scales there. I've never seen anyone but myself play it.

Gorgeous Young and Chang baby grand in A+ condition in the window. You’ll be invited to play if you want. Great coffee too and ice cream. Really beautiful cafe, bright, immaculately clean. Lots of people around (which made me nervous) working, relaxing, and chatting. It’s the perfect environment for your impromptu performance. Can’t wait to give it another shot.

In the Hilton Lake Buena Vista, Disney Springs. A very nice Yamaha grand in good condition, tucked in a hallway at the end of the meeting center. I picked appropriate times to play and was given free rein.

The studio is designed to be somewhat interactive (they also have an indoor swing) and there's a sign on the piano (a Steinway baby grand, iirc) that says something like "play if you know what you're doing, if you don't then don't". When I was there they had other music playing, but the person working there noticed when I started playing and turned it off.

beautiful Steinway grand, perfect condition

Pink piano against the wall between door 2 and the bathrooms

Playable. No permission needed.

In the Student Center and Dining Hall.

It was donated by a veteran. I just saw it today when I went to my appointment, Tuesday Nov. 7th 2023

Nice Kawai baby grand. Mostly in tune. D key sticks a little. Really enjoyed playing it October 27, 2023. I don’t know if this one used to be in the connector to Terminal 4 - there is no piano in the connector at this time.

Inside the university, but is open-campus.

Bun Bun in the Flowers by Nell Valle

Must ask bartender for permission to play.

There were two uprights with several broken keys and out of tune. The piano was still playable, although it kind of hurts to play it. I last saw it a month and a half ago.

A grand piano outside a wine shop. No need to ask to play it, you can just sit down. Gets good traffic. A little worn down but playable. 7/10 would play again.

Dual player piano. August 9, 2023

They are all over the Broadmoor

There are multiple pianos around the hotel

Free for all to play. April through October.

As of this writing, house is open to the public 1-4pm Tuesdays and Wednesdays (but check the City of Mountain View website). I asked the volunteer if I could play on the upright and it's 100% fine.

The staircase leading up on this wing is the closest entrance to this piano.

Amongst the seating of the restaurant, support their lovely business!

#sandbox thanks for putting these out here!!

It needs tuning, and it sounds a little tinny, but the acoustics in the atrium give the sound a real charm.

Pretty old and unplayable, but it's there

Old fashioned wooden piano with a sign that says "Play me. I'm yours. "

Old fashioned wooden piano with a sign that said "Play Me. I'm Yours. "

https://www.artworksvass.com/. Super nice place to play. Check the schedule for events. Very nice staff will welcome you to play during non-event times. Nice gift shopping and arts and crafts classes too.

https://raleighdenimworkshop.com/ Older console/spinet in the jeans shop. Atmosphere is great! Usually quiet middle of the day, busier late afternoon….give the shoppers a little concert. Very friendly staff who enjoy having a pianist visit. Buy some cool jeans while you’re there.

https://www.heightshousenc.com/ Older grand piano in the lounge in the basement. May not be available if there is a private event.

Gorgeous Yamaha grand in the cafe and taproom. Plays great!

Sometimes they let you, sometimes they don’t.

Great little coffee shop with pianos and a guitar to jive a bit while you’re waiting for your drink and sandwich.

😍😍😍

Apparently hours are 11am-7pm. I saw it around 3-4pm 5/25/2023 Unknown how long it will stay there for - Brandon

trolling piano enthusiasts be like...

There are 6 individual pianos/practice rooms and 1 ensemble room that can be used for 1 hour (or longer if no one needs the space). Library card OR ID needed to use the space.

Ask the front desk before attempting to play. They are very considerate and allow anyone to play. This is what seems to be an upright piano player piano. The piano doesn’t seem to have a working sustain pedal at the time I am posting this.

Lobby Hours are Mon-Fri 9AM-6PM. Piano still available after hours (which provides more privacy if desired) but lobby entrance is closed - can enter through emergency room or other entrances.

Need to ask permission to play the piano inside the store

Outdoor public piano!

Make me one with drums! And a tiger for a stool!! Yeah!!

It's beautiful! 👏👏😍

Bright red, usually out on weekends

Bösendorfer grand piano

Right Side Concourse after TSA Checkpoint

Wurlitzer 2255 Oak upright piano, painted with a large owl face along the back and a very mustached man above the keys, some keys linger even without pedal and some do not sound at all.

Lovely grand piano located inside the main entrance to the hospital. Usually a few people around to listen while waiting for their loved ones to get out of surgery or the ER.

Beltline Piano In The Dark. Really out of tune but still fun to play.

The piano is right at the entrance! The building is an open lounge area shared by several small businesses including a cafe and barber shop.

Full sail crowd

upright piano, colorful, outside

Upright piano, Steinway, no bench, slightly out of tune but well-loved

Its in the food court

Upright - Somewhat in tune and reasonable condition

It's a small airport. Almost the entirety of the building is before the TSA checkpoint where it is located, so it's technically a public piano.

The second of the two pianos located in the Kerr Drummond Mezzanine, this is a Steinway Model S Baby Grande piano. This piano, serial number 127586, was built in 1907 and as of 2022 is 115 years old. This piano was once played by Sir Elton John on November 1, 1973. This piano is horribly out of tune, earning itself the nickname "The Devil Piano".

Steinway Model D Concert Grande built in 1905, twenty and a half ivory keys still remaining. Serial number 118192, as of 2022 it is 117 years old.

Played on this piano 3 times and it recently seems to have had a tune up. They have it out only during the day, but sometimes it's not there during the day. It's orange and has flowers painted on it. The middle keys are pretty bad and it's hard to do legato, and overall it sounds like a toy piano, very sharp, but it's really nice and can be appreciated. There's no bench now, but they have it on a rolling stand and the elbows line up pretty well with the keys for people of average height. There's a lot of traffic in the area, so people may come up to you to watch or ask you questions. I'd also be cautious about dangerous strangers in the area, but they do have security guards patrolling the area. The security guards are occasionally gone, however, so I wouldn't focus too much on playing, more on surroundings.

Keyboard for public, must sign a waver and make appointment to use. Located inside the library.

I could listen to you play forever, brother🖤💜

On the left side, can see from the outside

Located in an wonderful antique mall this, Hyundai Full Grand Piano available most days. On weekends, a hired pianist will be playing for part of each day.

Tons of open pianos around the area, as well as open to the public practice rooms in the building north of the commons (called the HFAC). You can’t make reservations, but it’s cool

A professional was playing it, had a sign with his name on it. Not sure if publicly available otherwise. Steinway brand, so probably not

Piano is inside before security line

For use during Library hours by accomplished pianist (i.e. no chopsticks, scales, practising, etc.)

They have six individual Music Practice Rooms for 1 to 3 people and a Chamber Room for groups of 3 to 10. The Rooms are available at no charge any time the Library is open. For more information, call the Arts & Music department of the Library at 312-747-4850.

They require you to sign in to use it, just to keep track of who's played it and to prevent hogging.

1st floor, below food court and library.

Availability depends on when the Commons is open.

There’s a number on the piano to call for permission.

Mezzanine

Piano is from the 19th century and sounds good, but unfortunately it's kept outside and looks to be rapidly deteriorating. Some keys are stuck or have broken off. Still cool! I hope it's preserved

Previously played this piano for nearly two years until Covid. Learned the piano was re-opened earlier this year. Yamaha, keys work perfectly, infamous for being the red-haired girl who always played.
