Hawaiian-themed entertainment at a previous Summer Jubilee event



Community Events

 

Past Summer Jubilee entertainers have included
The Beach Boys, The Bangles, The Fab Four, The Gap Band,
The Whispers, Kool and the Gang, Teena Marie, and others.

Summer Jubilee: In addition to top name bands (such as those listed above) and local bands that play on multiple stages, Summer Jubilee also features food vendors, games, an arts & crafts fair, children's activities, and much more. And, unlike other cities which often charge a nominal fee or hold such venues only on an annual basis or a few dates, there is no entrance or parking fee and the event runs several evenings throughout the summer.

The City of Alhambra is currently negotiating contracts for the 2007 season and expects some fabulous entertainment once again for the upcoming season...so stay tuned!!!
