LOCATED IN DOWNTOWN SACRAMENTO ON THE CORNER 10TH and J STREET - (916)-442-8575

The Sacramento park is a landmark in the city. In June 2003, the park re-opened after improvements were made to beautify the existing plaza, which has been a focal point for Sacramento for over 100 years. Concerts and special events take place often at the park since it is located in the center of the downtown area. Friday Night Concerts in the Park take place every May - mid-August on a stage located at the north side of the plaza. Most of the artists scheduled to perform are well known in the area and play a variety of music. Alive & Kicking publisher and music promoter Jerry Perry books the music for the concerts that can bring in hundreds of fans!!
