Major League Baseball is tuning up the ballparks for a fresh round of Jerry Garcia Tribute Nights, honoring what would have been the beloved guitarist’s 83rd birthday with music‑infused match‑ups, fan giveaways, and a charitable twist. This year’s celebration features twin dates on the diamond:

Part of the Terrapin Roadshow series, a fine ensemble of talented musicians with shared music pedigrees gathered on July 19 at a 500‑capacity amphitheater in San Rafael, California, for a two‑set, kaleidoscopic performance of (mostly) Grateful Dead music. This was the second of three weekend shows at the venue, typically utilized by the Marin Shakespeare Company, within the Dominican University of California campus, each of which had a different ensemble cast.

In October 1974 the Grateful Dead took their mighty Wall of Sound off the road and stepped into an uncertain silence. Eleven months later they re‑emerged not in an arena, but in Bob Weir’s home studio in Mill Valley, armed with blank slates and curious hearts. The result was Blues for Allah, the most exploratory studio statement of the band’s storied career—a record that fused desert night moods, jazz‑leaning instrumental flights, and Robert Hunter’s mystic poetry into a single, swirling ecosystem.

Dead & Company and IMAX are teaming up to beam the magic of Golden Gate Park directly to big screens across North America. On Sunday, August 3, the band’s third straight sold‑out show in their hometown will stream live to select IMAX theatres, giving fans everywhere a front‑row view of a night that caps 60 years of Grateful Dead music.

Downtown’s Yerba Buena Lane will blossom into a tie‑dyed playground of music, art, and community spirit when “A Grateful Gathering at Yerba Buena Lane” rolls out the welcome mat for Dead & Company concertgoers on Thursday, July 31.

Haight-Ashbury will be the epicenter of the psychedelic revival as it welcomes Deadheads from near and far for a weekend-long series of GD60 on Haight Street with pre-shows and after-parties at O’Reilly’s Pub celebrating the music and legacy of the Grateful Dead from July 31—August 3.

Red Rocks always feels half-alive when the sun slips behind Ship Rock, but on July 6th the famous sandstone seemed to breathe in unison with Jerry Garcia’s music.

The Front Range’s favorite dog-friendly fall celebration is back. On Saturday, September 20, historic Thompson Park will come alive with frosty steins, artisan eats and an evening headliner set from genre-bending jam-grass heroes Keller Williams’ Grateful Grass. Every ticket sold fuels the lifesaving programs of Longmont Humane Society, turning a day of music and merriment into direct support for local animals.

Kicking off the weekend of events celebrating Jerry Garcia and the 60th Anniversary of The Grateful Dead is the Jerry Garcia commemorative street sign ceremony at Harrington Street on Friday, August 1 at 11am (time subject to change). The ceremony, taking place on Jerry’s birthday, will be on Harrington Street between Alemany Boulevard and Mission Street in the Excelsior District where Garcia was born and lived with his grandparents.

On Friday, August 1, the Colorado Rockies will transform Coors Field into a haven for Deadheads and baseball fans alike in celebration of Jerry Garcia’s birthday.
