Beyond the bars and restaurants with talented live bands, you can often find performers in the streets in busy areas throughout Galveston. To find street performers, check out popular shopping spots and tourist attractions. The Strand is a charming historic district known for shopping, dining and entertainment. While walking the streets, you might find musical performers and other acts.
You might also find live music at the Galveston Seawall. This 10-mile stretch of beach along the Gulf of Mexico is a popular tourist destination and often hosts performers. Along the seawall, you will also find the Galveston Island Pleasure Pier with rides, dining, shops and sometimes performers.
Festivals and other events in Galveston are also excellent opportunities to hear live performers. The Galveston Island Beach Revue is a family-friendly, historic-themed event with classic cars, vintage vendors and live music. It happens for two days each year during the summer.
When you want just the music, without visiting a restaurant or touring the city, consider attending a concert. The Grand 1894 Opera House is a beautiful historic location for music. It is an intimate venue with superb acoustics. The building also preserves the historic beauty of the old opera house. Come for musicals, country and gospel music performances.
Attend an outdoor concert at the Eugenia and George Sealy Pavilion any Tuesday during the summer. The Galveston Beach Band plays in the pavilion with a concert band, jazz ensemble and vocalist. Genres include rock, jazz, marches and movie music. Visiting children even get the chance to participate with maracas and a post-performance children's parade.
