West Alameda Business Association Launches An Exciting New Series: "West is Best"

I’m thrilled to announce the launch of WABA's newest series: "West is Best," a celebration of community, music, and the artisans and merchants who are the heartbeat of the West Alameda Business District.

Since its inception, WABA’s Healing Garden at 1435 Webster Street, Alameda, has been a hub for community events and concerts. West is Best focuses on Bay Area artists, both emerging and established, to offer attendees experiences they won’t get anywhere else. 

West is Best kicks off on June 16th, 2024 (Yup, Father’s Day), with Pop Rocks, a throwback dance band that delivers a dynamic blend of high-energy hits spanning from Motown to the 90s.

Following Alameda’s popular 4th of July Parade, West is Best will continue with Hat Trick. This vintage classic rock band guarantees an unforgettable experience with triple shots of iconic artists like the Grateful Dead, Joe Walsh, and Neil Young.

Rounding out the series, on August 18th is the Premier East Bay Eagles tribute band, Midnight Flyer.  Their dynamic and heartfelt renditions of some of rock music’s finest songs are not to missed.

In addition to the stellar musical lineup, West is Best will feature vintage markets curated by the West End's Patina and Rust, along with local artisans showcasing their talents and culinary skills. Your favorite neighborhood bar the Fireside will be there to keep the locals hydrated. West is Best has something for everyone, including the kiddos. 

If you’re an artist, merchant, food vendor, or vintage seller, I hope you’ll join us for one or all of these events. As a special incentive, if you sign up for all three, you’ll get one free! Register today at https://form.jotform.com/241024342167043
