Review:
Gold Rush Days is Sacramento's biggest annual bash, held each year over Labor Day weekend within Old Sacramento State Historic Park. The four-day pioneer celebration showcases live entertainment on several stages, along with Old West reenactments and demonstrations presented throughout the event. All of the district's streets ban automobile traffic throughout the event, with wagon, pony, and stagecoach rides available for visitors. Historic food and beverages are sold at the Embarcadero Tent City, including traditional sarsaparilla. Other activities include free outdoor film showings, a beer crawl, a country dance vent, and a statehood celebratory procession featuring living history performers and a brass band.
