How this works

Gallivant is a guide to going out in greater Sacramento, from concerts and festivals to recurring trivia nights and happy hours.

I've lived in Sacramento since 2017 and made Gallivant because I adore this town and the incredible community and businesses here. There is always so much happening, and we needed an up-to-date source to easily discover it all.

Every listing links to where it came from: the venue, the organizer, or the ticket page. If the source and Gallivant ever disagree, trust the source, and please let me know so I can fix it. Listings run about two months out. They cover all Sac neighborhoods and surrounding cities. I'm always scouting for more venues and events, and I add each one once I've checked its source.

Every Monday morning, Gallivant checks ticketing services like Ticketmaster and Eventbrite, and reads the calendars of local venues, organizers, and community groups that I've picked out by hand. New events go up that morning, and canceled ones come down. Happy hours are checked against each bar's own website about once a month. Each listing shows when it was last checked. If I can't confirm something is still happening, I take it down.

Gallivant doesn't collect anything about you. There are no accounts and no tracking, and anything you save stays in your browser.

The backdrop is inspired by Sacramento's grid, turned about 19° from true north to match the real thing.

If Gallivant helps you find some good nights out, you can chip in via Venmo at @gallivant. It helps cover hosting, map data, and the time it takes to create this and keep everything up to date. I greatly appreciate your support!
