Savor summer’s final stretch with high-energy gatherings, cultural pride and live musical performances that span generations. Whether you’re catching a dreamy doo-wop set at Goldfield Trading Post in Midtown, vibing to cumbia under the Yolo County Fairground lights or celebrating 40 years of LGBTQ+ joy at the Sac Rainbow Fest, August begins and closes out with entertainment for everyone.
Don’t miss Chalk It Up!’s colorful return to Fremont Park, a skater-fueled documentary bash at The Starlet Room, a decade’s worth of doom metal with Chrome Ghost’s anniversary show and an anime fandom takeover of downtown with all of its cosplay-clad energy. From burlesque and punk to KPop dance battles, Sacramento’s late-summer scene is a kaleidoscope of possibilities.
