The PAL Blues, Arts & Bar-B-Que Festival

The Redwood City PAL Blues, Arts and Bar-B-Que Festival, presented by the San Mateo Credit Union, brings the best of the blues to Courthouse Square in Downtown Redwood City on July 27th & 28th. The Festival features blues musicians from the Bay Area and beyond including Sista Monica, Andy Santana, Cold Feat, Gary Smith, Ron Hacker and many more. Offering wonderful live music, a family area with an arcade for children, and delicious food, the festival showcases Redwood City’s Courthouse Square, along with Redwood City’s downtown merchants and restaurants.
