The Walnut Creek Downtown Association usually sells beverages during concerts, plus concertgoers can get food at a number of our surrounding eateries and restaurants! The Summer Concert Series is proud to be a part of a month-long celebration in Downtown Walnut Creek of the performing, visual, cultural and culinary arts. It's called Arts Around August Walnut Creek.
Other seasons for fun include the time honored tradition of trick or treating and the annual Winter Ice Skating rink.
