Free Movies & Concerts San Francisco Bay Area
Every city, it seems, in the SF Bay Area has free weekly concerts. Does it get better than this? Each month, I’ll post my list of the next 2 months of free concerts and free movies, my selection and any new venues I find (from your suggestions, I’m sure). Below you will find a random list of cities offering free concerts and free movies. If you’re playing in one of these bands, feel free to post your site here and let us know about your band. If you know of another city offering free concerts, post it here and I’ll update my list!
