Three Free Summer Concerts Series
Huntington Beach restaurants are increasing their quality and offerings in addition to improving their meeting space.
Free Concerts
Free Concerts occur primarily in
June through November, with
additional free music played
during special events. There are
also many opportunities to
listen to Live Bands at local
restaurants, bars and pubs.
Huntington Beach is a music haven. Not only do many popular bands come from the city or get their start in the garages there, but a host of musicians also call the city their home. As such, you'll find the music scene (which has always been good), keeps improving with age. The only thing missing perhaps, is a large indoor venue such as the Golden Bear, a once popular music and concert club that during its decades on Pacific Coast Highway, served up solid rock, blues and other live music regularly.
For visitors and
locals in Huntington Beach,
you'll find summer really is the
best time to pick up the free
daytime outdoor music at the
Huntington Beach Pier Plaza,
Huntington Beach International
Surfing Museum and Central Park.
The longest-running of the three
concerts series is the Surfing
Museum concerts called Surfin'
Sundays, which normally runs
from around May to October. The
other concerts at the park and
beach comprise approx. 6
concerts, each. They sometimes
overlap on Sunday afternoons /
evenings so it makes seeing all
the offerings a bit tough. The
pier concerts at the beach
include Latin, Country, Swing,
Blues, Jazz, Soft Rock and a
variety of sounds, while the
Central Park Concerts are mostly
jazz band offerings. Surfin'
Sundays stays true to the
surfing sounds with a steady
beat, mostly instrumentals,
guitars and fast-paced songs.
Pier Plaza Pacific Coast Highway
