The Peninsula’s first Entertainment Zone is coming to life this summer on three special dates: 

  • June 11, 3-5 p.m. 
  • June 20, 1-3:30 p.m. 
  • July 18, 11-1:30 p.m. 

Grab your friends, put on sunscreen, and get ready to groove on the street during Redwood City’s newest Happy Hours! These special events on the Broadway Pedestrian Mall Entertainment Zone will expand the fun downtown. Visitors can expect giant games, live music, and unique experiences at each event. 

What is an Entertainment Zone? 

An Entertainment Zone is an area where visitors may consume alcoholic beverages in public spaces, such as streets, sidewalks, or plazas, during specified days and hours, and under operational conditions that the City may define. 

On May 11, 2026, Redwood City adopted an ordinance to approve one Entertainment Zone in Redwood City, on the 2000 block of Broadway, between Jefferson and Main, and the cross-section of Redwood Creek from Broadway to the Main Street Parking Lot.
