The Civic Cultural Commission of the City Of Redwood City has awarded a grant that provides key funding for the Northern California Bluegrass Society’s Bluegrass On Broadway Festival.
The 12th Annual event will be held at various Redwood City venues on the weekend of January 25-27, 2019.
The FREE community gathering includes the Northern California Bluegrass Awards on January 26 and the NCBS Bluegrass Film Festival on January 27. Other live music is presented in the restaurants, bars, and other venues around the city, creating an enjoyable bluegrass weekend for both locals and visitors.
The grant is subject to final approval by the Redwood City Council later this month.
Redwood City, located in the middle of the SF Bay Area, is the Peninsula Home Of Bluegrass Music, with frequent shows in the city’s music clubs and the inclusion of bluegrass music in civic celebrations and public concerts. New this year is the city’s Bluegrass Pub In The Park series, which will be staged monthly throughout the summer in various neighborhood parks by the Redwood City Department Of Parks Recreation & Community Services.
