You are invited to celebrate the last rays of summer on the beach
with an epic week of Sammy Hagar & The Circle concerts! First,
after experiencing a day of mind-bending aviation feats at the
Pacific Airshow, join Sammy & The Circle as they kick off opening
night of the first-ever AFTERBURNER MUSIC FESTIVAL (tickets) on the shores of
Huntington Beach. Then grab one of Catalina Express' daily ferries and sail to the
majestic shores of Catalina Island for a weekend-long concert party
at Sammy's annual BIRTHDAY BASH!
We encourage you to book your travel and lodging asap,
as lodging on the island is limited. Plenty of lodging is
available on the mainland with a ferry ride to the island.
See resources below for details!
When scheduling your trip to the Island, we recommend you arrive with enough
time to enjoy the sights, and arrive at the venue 2-3 hours before showtime.
Thursday show starts at 5pm, Friday & Saturday starts at 8pm.

COVID Protocols For Sammy Hagar's Catalina Island Birthday Bash Shows
The health and safety of the Redheads, our touring family and
everyone involved in making these shows happen safely is our
top priority. On that note, we've moved the annual Birthday Bash
shows from Sammy's home away from home, the intimate Cabo Wabo
Cantina in Mexico, to a much larger and open domestic venue,
the Catalina Casino in Avalon, CA. However, as the Covid-19 and
Delta variant
surges throughout the United States, we are following the lead
of the major music and live entertainment companies by requiring
everyone in attendance be fully vaccinated in order to provide
the safest environment possible for all of us.
