Head to Golden Gate Park for the 19th annual Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival. This year, festivities are held near the Polo Field at Hellman Hollow (formerly Speedway Meadows), Lindley, and Marx Meadows.

In addition to live music, there are more than 50 gourmet food and beverage vendors. You are also welcome to bring your own picnic. A list of food and beverage options can be found here.
