Redwood Coast Jazz Festival is
one of the North Coast's hottest events. Cool jazz sounds emanate
from the land that defines cool, with its towering redwood forests
that surround the city of Eureka. Tourists can hop on board for
Jazz, swing, calypso, zydeco and acts happening all over town.
There's a free jitney bus service that runs throughout, connecting
the various venues of the event. With three of the Venues offering
big dance floors, you'll need to save your energy for the main draw,
the music. Call for Tickets: (707) 445-3378. redwoodjazz.org
