This year’s all-star line-up includes Aaron Nigel Smith, Frances England, Lucky Diaz & the Family Jam Band, and The Not-It’s! and concerts are happening throughout the entire month of October. We’ve compiled the entire schedule for you below.

Tricycle Music Fest is presented jointly by the San Francisco Public Library and San Mateo County Library. Families, get ready for a hip-shaking, head bopping dance party explosion of indie fresh pop rock beats—only at the library! And, because playing is just as important as singing in early childhood learning, they will be raffling off one tricycle to a lucky concertgoer at each event. Skip the nap, grab your boogie shoes and catch unforgettable shows in October!

Do you have an act you can’t wait to catch at this year’s festival? Let us know in the comments below!
