As Summer begins its slow descent from desert vibes into sweater weather and soup season, we’re excited to celebrate all things Fall-related in Old Sacramento. As we approach spooky October festivities, you’ll start to see some of our festive decor begin to appear like apparitions around the district, atop balconies, alleyways, and window displays!

To kick things off, we want to take a moment and celebrate one of our local businesses on its first anniversary in the district! Congratulations Ecojoyous! To celebrate, Ecojoyous is putting together a fun-filled in-store event on September 14th, so be sure to follow them on Instagram and check our Event Calendar for more details.

We’d also like to take a moment and give a big ‘Welcome to the Neighborhood” shout-out to our newest business in Old Sacramento Waterfront, the Parliament Wine Lounge by Heringer Estates, which celebrated its Grand Opening last month! Swing by and enjoy a refreshing wine flight and charcuterie board pairing. The team is excited to see you!

All month long, we’ve got comedy shows, excursion trains, museum tours, free Yoga, not to mention, Dance on the Edge is back every other Saturday starting September 13th, and we can’t be more excited to get out on the waterfront and dance till the Sun goes down!
