Wildcat Mountain Ramblers To Close Redwood City’s Pub In The Park Bluegrass Series This Saturday, September 15

The Wildcat Mountain Ramblers will perform at the final 2018 Pub In The Park Bluegrass Concert this Saturday, September 15, 2018.  The FREE concert ends a summer of bluegrass & beer and will be held at Redwood City’s Red Morton Park. The show runs 11:00am-4:00pm.

Northern California Bluegrass Society welcomes the full 2018 series of bluegrass performances, which are presented by the Redwood City Department Of Parks Recreation & Community Services.

The monthly shows are centered around a bluegrass band and an amazing inflatable English-style pub that serves good beer throughout the afternoon. Food will be available and relaxed picnics with family and friends are encouraged.

This is the inaugural season — we hope the fun concerts will return to Redwood City parks next summer!
