Admission provided free of charge through the support of Mechanics Bank and the Port Chicago Alliance.
Step aboard the historic Red Oak Victory for a day of live music, food, film screenings, vintage cars, and free, self-guided tours overlooking the San Francisco Bay. Admission is free all day, offering visitors a rare chance to explore one of the last remaining Victory Ships still afloat and learn about its vital role in World War II and maritime history.
Guests are welcome to explore at their own pace and experience the ship’s decks, passageways, and historic spaces. Please note that access requires climbing a long gangway and multiple stairways throughout the vessel.

Albany Jazz Small Band
An ensemble of 13 musicians, including vocalists
The Albany Jazz Band has been entertaining audiences in the San Francisco Bay area since its current formation with Bob Levenson, saxophonist, as Music Director and Richard Kalman, vocalist, as co-director. We appear annually at the Solano Stroll, Albany, in September, at many Albany festival events, and at other Bay Area venues. Our music is upbeat, swinging, and fresh. We perform classic big-band jazz from the great bands of yore, as well as popular contemporary jazz standards in many styles.
Our musicians and singers are seasoned players, mostly from local communities. We aim to delight the audience with good dancing and listening, genuine Jazz.
