Have a musical 4th of July in the Richmond

If you’re staying home for the long weekend, you might want to check out one of these musical events to celebrate our independence.

Park Chalet live music and BBQ | Saturday, July 3rd 2pm-4pm
Kick off the 4th of July weekend with music from a 50 piece patriotic band that includes the Half Moon Bay “Sit-Down” Marching Band playing patriotic tunes, The Deutscher Musikverein of San Francisco and the Heiwa Taiko Drummers providing cultural music that is central to our country of immigrants.

Outdoor BBQ in the back opens at 10am, drop by and bring your picnic blanket for what promises to be a great show. Park Chalet is located behind the Beach Chalet restaurant, 1000 Great Highway @ Ocean Beach between Fulton St. and Lincoln Way.

Independence Day Concert | Golden Gate Park Bandshell, July 4 at 1pm
The Golden Gate Park Band will perform a free concert of American patriotic music, featuring Sousa, Irving Berlin and Tchaikovsky.

And let’s hope the weather cooperates for a clear night of fireworks on Sunday!
