Sacramento’s Gold Rush Days - 8/29 - 9/1/08
Gold Rush Days - Sacramento’s heritage celebration-is scheduled for Labor Day Weekend. More than 200 tons of dirt will be dumped on the streets of Old Sacramento as the annual festival “turns back the clock,” transforming Sacramento’s historic district into a scene straight out of the 1850s. Costumed re-enactors, Wild West gun fights, musicians playing period instruments, and many aspects of life during the Gold Rush will be highlighted during the four-day event.
Admission is Free; and event hours are as follows:
Friday, August 29, 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Saturday, August 30, 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.
Sunday, August 31, 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.
Monday, September 1, 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
