Immerse yourself in the community by planning a group or personal trip around a major happening. Redding’s annual calendar is filled with an eclectic line up of events, festivals and competitions. Think Redding Rodeo (May 13-17) and Shasta District Fair (June 18-22). While not all events are pet-friendly, you can always experience the buzz and ancillary happenings in town.
First Fridays is a monthly downtown event held on the first Friday of the month when stores stay open later, live music fills the air and locals sip, shop and sup from 5 to 8 p.m. Get your fill of fruits, veggies and baked goods at the Redding Farmers Market held every Saturday morning from 8:30 a.m. to 12 p.m (dogs must stay outside the perimeter of the market).
Every year, car lovers beeline to Kool April Nites in April to admire classic cars. Discover artisan goods and enjoy live music at Shasta Celtic Arts & Crafts Fair in Caldwell Park. Paddlers come out for the Lake Redding Regatta in August. The Redding Roots Revival in September is a two-day live music festival set in multiple venues throughout downtown Redding. Find out about all these events and more.
