K Street Market
Building upon the success of slow streets programs and Al Fresco dining, Old Sacramento Waterfront is bringing back an Al Fresco Market on K Street on weekends this spring. We will be opening the space up for pedestrians, bicyclists, with shaded places to sit or play complementary games, while listening to live music and exploring the market offerings.
Live performances include:
- David Molina
- Nikki Perez
- Sid Morris, and more!
One of the highlights of the past few years is that cities all over the world, including Sacramento, have had opportunities to experiment with recalibrating our public realm to best serve the people who enjoy them. This program prioritizes the pedestrian and creates a dynamic central plaza in the heart of Old Sacramento Waterfront featuring local vendors and artists, enhancing our guest experience on bustling Sundays and providing an opportunity to enjoy active transportation from DOCO to the Sacramento River.
Join us to see what there is to find in Old Sacramento Waterfront every Sunday from April 6 – June 1 from 11 AM – 6 PM.
Dance on the Edge
Join us Saturday May 3rd, 17th, and 31st from 6PM – 10PM for a night of music, movement, and community at Dance On The Edge’s Latin Dance Market. Start with a free dance lesson—no experience or partner needed—then dance the night away to salsa, bachata, and cumbia.
Explore a vibrant vendor market featuring local businesses, artisans, and delicious food. Whether you’re here to dance, shop, or simply enjoy the atmosphere, this event is open to all.
Bring your friends, family, or come solo—everyone is welcome. See you on the dance floor!

Pony Express National Annual Re-Ride
The Pony Rides Again, June 11th – 21st!
A lone rider gallops across a landscape of prairie grass and sagebrush and mountain terrain. The sound of approaching hoofbeats is heard from afar. Another rider and horse awaits in the shade of a tree. The incoming rider reins in and greetings are exchanged. Dismounting, the incoming courier lifts a leather mochila from the saddle. It is placed on the new horse and the fresh rider steps into the stirrup, swings into the saddle and begins a ride over the horizon and back into history
Each June, members of the National Pony Express Association recreate the Pony Express in a Commemorative Re-Ride over a 10 days period. Letters are carried in a mochila over the original trail. The 1,966 mile, eight state event is conducted 24 hours a day until the mail is delivered to its destination. This national event is an opportunity for all young and old to ride the Pony Trail and to receive mail via the Pony Express!
Over 750 riders participate and around 1,000 letters are mailed each year. Riders come from all walks of life, but are all members of NPEA. We invite you to join us in this exciting event!

Wednesday, June 11th
