Thursday from the end of June to the end of August, you’ll find
Music in the Park from

Pierson Park (free). Spend your Thursday evenings sprawled out on a blanket on the grass in McKinleyville listening to live music, eating great grub from local food trucks and hanging with your community. Catch

the Undercovers on
July 6. Or, set up your camping chair at
Madaket Plaza for the
Eureka Summer Concert Series, every
Thursday night from
6 to 8 p.m., mid-June through mid-August. On
June 29, it’s
Alameda Allstars, an Allman Brothers Tribute, and on

Humboldt Botanical Garden while listening to live music from
