Thursday Night Festival

Special We3 Reunion Concert
Bonsai Room | 7:00pm – 8:15pm

Admission $30

A long-standing tradition at our festival, the annual Thursday night We3 reunion is sure to please!  Whether you’re a fan of hot music, sweet ballads, or humor (or all three), you’ll be amazed at the synchronicity achieved by clarinetist Bob Draga, pianist Jeff Barnhart and drummer Danny Coots.  It’s as if they share one brain, and no-one knows who has it at any given time!  This one fills up, so get your tickets early.

Dave Stuckey’s Hot House Gang
(De Anza 8:30pm – 10:45pm)

Admission $25

In the DeAnza Ballroom from 8:30-10:45, come experience a one-time only blending of Carl Sonny Leyland’s Boogie Woogie Boys with Dave Stuckey’s Hot House Gang in a rollicking, riotous rendezvous! Whether you dance, listen, or both, this night will be one you talk about for years to come! The swingin’ sounds created by these blended groups will fill your ears and hearts with their great music and camaraderie, and fill both dance floors with their exciting beat!

ATTEND BOTH EVENTS FOR $50

Please note: Thursday night events are separate from festival badge purchases
