The Boardwalk reopens in Sacramento, CA

The legendary venue has its encore.

An art deco sign reads "The Boardwalk, est. 1987"

The Boardwalk has its encore after a nine month closure.

Scene kids rejoice. Orangevale’s The Boardwalk is back after announcing its closure earlier this year.

After the space’s former owner announced that it would shutter in January, the space and intellectual property rights were purchased by the locally-based Palm Tree Brewing Company. Under its leadership, the venue now serves Polynesian and American food during the day and rocks out on weekend nights.

Community members are clearly excited about the news. The Boardwalk’s first show — which was held last Friday and featured Florida-based Red Jumpsuit Apparatus and local bands Yunger and Self Continuum — sold out days before the doors opened.
