Aftershock Music Festival Specials in Downtown

featured image

Four days of rock, metal, punk, and a whole lot of head banging have arrived in Sacramento. Aftershock is bigger than just the festival this year… when you’re heading downtown pre or post festival hours, your wristband is good as gold.


I know I’m always on the hunt for event perks, so I thought I’d share what your Aftershock festival wristband can get you around downtown this week from discounts on meals to punk-rock themed nights worth checking out. Get your money’s worth from wearing and showing proof of your festival wristband when heading out. Below are the participating businesses.

Even if you don’t have a festival wristband, you can still head to these spots and get into some aftershock themed fun.

Let’s get into the good stuff:
