Sausalito Jazz & Blues Festival

The 2026 Sausalito Jazz & Blues Festival by the Bay music series is free! Consider your Friday evenings booked from June to September. It's in Gabrielson Park. We can rent tables in the picnic area but it's more fun to layout blankets on the lawn near the stage and dance track. The lawn area is small so
we have to get there early to claim a spot and this is a very popular music series. All the bands that I've seen over the years are excellent. A few requirements: low beach chairs/tables or sit on your blanket for max stage views. We'll be group dancing for sure. Bring your food & bev or try the food trucks and local vendors. See the park map in Photo section and note where we'll camp-out. It can be warm evening temps, chilly rolling fog or rain to cancel.
