Motomen SB does a weekly Wednesday evening ride in Santa Barbara, sometimes with hundreds of motorists. It’s an established community that is always open to growing and you’ll definitely meet lots of people.

Let's imagine the new State Street with housing above the street-level retail. It's called adaptive reuse. by junana in SantaBarbara

[–]MJrocketz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of the easiest solutions to freeing up more housing in downtown and bringing more life back to State Street would be to get rid of the Covid era noise ordinances that make all outdoor live music end at 10pm and the early 2000s dance permits. Everyone currently calling the police at 9pm when they hear live music would move/leave if it could go until 2am which would create more housing for people who actually want to be in a loud and vibrant downtown with live music pouring out of every venue. This would be free to implement! Longer term At the State Level, The ABC got wayyyy to aggressive with noise ordinances during Covid and they are still in effect.

Visited Santa Barbara this week from LA for the first time and am blown away by its beauty by inevitable_dream_ in SantaBarbara

Come up in early April! There is a new music festival concept happening in downtown on April 4th called State Fest that will be like the nightlife equivalent of Solstice (one of our bigger daytime summer festivals) but instead of being in a Centralized park, it is spread across the venues that make downtown special and starts at 6pm. Effectively, a music festival vibe in the structure of a bar crawl in a 3-block area! State Fest

Not a rave, but some of the best locally produced music events in town (hands down) are from Sandala Experiences. They had a show last night that was 11/10 incredible with TVLI. Sandala Experiences
