Curated events
What's on in California
Curated California events by region, from the Rose Parade to Big Sur and Napa, with organiser dates and a checked date on every entry.
California is too big for one calendar, so this agenda is grouped by the regions this guide covers. Each entry is a fixture worth planning a trip around, not a listing.
Every entry says when it was last checked. Confirm dates, tickets and road closures with the organiser before you commit to a base.
