🎶 Celebrate Dia de los Muertos with Momotombo at Rock the Dock in RWC!
Details
💀 Join your New Beginnings friends for an unforgettable afternoon of music, dancing, and Día de los Muertos celebration at the Port of Redwood City!
As part of the Port’s Rock the Dock Concert Series, we’ll be grooving to the incredible sounds of Momotombo SF — a 10-piece band made up of legendary Bay Area musicians, including alumni of Malo and Santana. Their blend of Latin Rock, Jazz, and Afro-Cuban rhythms captures the fiery spirit of San Francisco’s iconic music scene — straight from the psychedelic days of Winterland and The Fillmore. 🔥
✨ Come experience the fire — and the spirit of remembrance and joy that Día de los Muertos brings to our community.

---------------------------------
🅿️ PARKING
- Main Lot: The Port’s main parking lot fills quickly — especially for popular bands.
- Overflow Lot: If the main lot is full, use the overflow lot just east of the main entrance on Seaport Blvd.
- How to Enter: Instead of turning left into the main lot, make a soft diagonal left just before the median and go through the gate. (Yes, it feels like you’re heading into oncoming traffic!)
- Walking Route: After parking, walk back out to Seaport Blvd to get to the dock.
