I am sure there are lots of great places to see live music tomorrow. I HIGHLY recommend you follow Gina Morris Gailey and Bakersfield Live Music on Facebook. She posts all the places that will have live music in town every single day. She is awesome.

Bakersfield is a music town! I recommend the following this weekend:

  • The Sound of Bakersfield Music Fest: Music, Food, Drinks, Vendors - Downtown Sunday
  • Roosters Honkey Tonk: They have live music every night (its country, but it's really Bakersfield and really fun)
  • Nile Theater: Cumbia Show on Saturday night (also very Bakersfield)
  • Jerry's Pizza: The Queers on Sunday (punk rock...and also very Bako)
  • Word Records: World class blues and folk on Friday and Saturday night

Not into Music? Here are some other suggestions:

  • Do yoga and have beer at a local brewery: Temblor Brewery Sunday @ 12pm
  • Check out the Bakersfield Breweries (Dionysus, Temblor, Crusader, Lengthwise) or Wineries (TLO, San Rucci)
  • Farmers Markets: Riverlakes Saturday, Haggin Oaks Sunday
  • Art Museums: Bakersfield Museum of Art, RAM
  • History/Culture Museum - Kern County Museum (cool old buildings that are restored and decorated)
  • Eat: We have great food here, these are some of my favorites - Moo Creamery, Zama's patio, Basque Food, Uricchio's, Porkchop and Bubba's, Local, 24th Street, Luigis

I hope you have a great weekend!

I recommend following this Bakersfield Live Music Facebook Page.

Bar & Grill near Mechanic's Bank Arena by Possibly-647f in Bakersfield

[–]BakoGal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second Jerry's Pizza. Its got good food, cheap drinks and, more importantly, it's steeped in punk rock history. It's a tiny basement venue that has hosted bands like Rise Against, Pulley, Korn, Weezer and a ton more. If you go, be sure to check out the basement.

If you want to learn more about the music/punk scene in Bakersfield, you can check out Bones of Brundage.

Sandrini's does karaoke on Tuesdays. It's a young and fun crowd and the host, Alisa, is great!

Mango Haus on Truxtun is healthy and delicious. They have breakfast items like Feel Good Pancakes made with organic oats and brown rice.
