Waterfront Days this Memorial Day Weekend

Sacramento Waterfront Days appears to be what Gold Rush Days in Old Sacramento use to celebrate. It seems to be almost identical minus the dirt covered streets and ends on Sunday. This three-day event takes place on Front Street, The Embarcadero, and the 1849 Scene all along the Sacramento River.  The heritage celebration features a wide variety of crowd-favorite entertainment, all free to experience and enjoy. Guests in Old Sacramento Waterfront will be entertained by talented period musicians performing live throughout the district in addition to a Shakespearian Comedic Play.  Experience the Gold Rush Fire Brigade (as seen at the Rose Bowl Parade), and other Old West theatrics, family-friendly melodramas, history re-enactments, horse-drawn carriages, canons, gold panning, hands-on children’s arts and crafts activities, the popular Tent City depicting daily life during the Gold Rush, and much more.
