This weekend in Berkeley, California brings 14 live events across the city — from music. 9 events are explicitly listed as free. Here's what's on.
Berkeley's live events scene mixes university firepower with decades of counterculture history. The Greek Theatre, the hillside amphitheater on the Cal campus, is one of the most beloved outdoor venues on the West Coast, hosting major touring acts from spring through fall. Freight & Salvage downtown is a national institution for folk, roots, and traditional music, presenting shows nearly every night. Berkeley Repertory Theatre regularly sends productions to Broadway, and Cal Performances brings world-class classical, dance, and jazz to Zellerbach Hall. The UC Theatre on University Avenue rounds out the circuit with rock, hip-hop, and global acts in a restored movie house.
