WEEKLY ENTERTAINMENT EVENTS MAY 20TH-22ND, 2022 (& beyond…)
Humboldt County is certainly famous for it’s towering Redwood trees and rugged, unpopulated coastlines but a lesser-known fact about this area is that we have great music, event and theatre venues! Arcata, Eureka and even rural Redway are popular sideshow stops for some of entertainments’ greatest names. Humboldt County may be remote in many ways but it’s a hot spot for touring musicians and other special events.
