The Mountain Winery has announced this year’s Summer Concert Series, in conjunction with AXS, all kicking off May 24th with Juanes and running through October 6th with Bonnie Raitt closing out the season. With a few pre-sales having happened this week, the general sale of tickets starts April 22nd on AXS.com.
Mountain Winery is one of my own favorite venues, offering an amazing yet intimate outdoor amphitheater overlooking Silicon Valley, along with many dining options and of course excellent wine. I make it a personal and ongoing concert destination for a good part of the year, often attending around a dozen of the many shows on offer.
Full details can be found on the official site at www.MountainWinery.com:
