Hear

Sand, a Bavarian hall, Main Street, and a few rooms that actually book bands.

Lineups change weekly. This page is the rooms. This week’s bill is in the events list and the Thursday email. Confirm before you Uber.

On the sand / downtown

GoOften freeDogs on the sand

SeaLegs at the Beach

17851 PCH · Bolsa Chica State Beach · sealegsatthebeach.com

Open-air bar on the sand. Weekend live music (often 2pm), Sunday Beatles brunch with The Walrus. Toes in the sand, tribute bands, family until it isn’t. Parking is the State Beach lot — bring cash or the app. Hours skew weekend; they are not a Tuesday nightclub.

Sea Salt at the Beach

18751 PCH · Bolsa / State Beach stretch

The other sand stage on the same PCH run as SeaLegs. Own weekend bills (country, tributes, 2pm sets). All-ages until they say otherwise. Scout this calendar every Thursday — it is not SeaLegs with a different sign.

Regular

Huntington Beach House

21601 PCH · thehuntingtonbeachhouse.com

Oceanfront room on State Beach. DJs, funky house, World Cup watch parties, weekend day sets. When a sand festival is next door (Sun Soaked, Airshow), this address is in the blast radius.

Regular

The Bungalow HB

Pacific City / PCH

Day parties (Azure, Day Dreaming, house). Not a tribute-band patio. 21+ when they say so.

Regular

Beach City Provisions

17851 PCH · SeaLegs lot

Daytime sets on the same property as SeaLegs. Check the bill; it is not always the 2pm sand stage.

GoFree

Surf City Nights

Every Tuesday · Main Street · about 4:30–8:30pm

Street fair with a stage. Not a listening room. Fine for a beer and a band while you buy peaches. Cars off Main by 2pm. Details on the markets page.

GoFree

Surfin’ Sundays · Pier Plaza

Sunday afternoons · International Surfing Museum series + plaza stage

The free pier concert. Bike or park north of Main. This is the “we still live here” Sunday, not Coachella.

Rooms with a calendar

Regular

Old World Village · Festival Hall

7561 Center Ave · events.oldworldhb.com

Dinner shows during the week, bigger bills on festival weekends (Plum Fest, then Oktoberfest Sep–Nov). German bands, 90s nights, duos. Reservations beat a walk-up when the courtyard is full. Patio is often dog-ok; indoor rooms are not a dog venue.

Regular

Surf Dog’s / Salty Paws

Sports grill · live most weekend nights · surfdogshb.com

Neighbourhood bar with a stage and a giant TV wall. Bands, not a downtown tourist trap. Check their calendar; “most weekends” is not a promise of a specific trio.

Regular

Circle OC

8901 Warner Ave · thecircleoc.com

Nightclub / event hall inland. DJs, themed nights, occasional live. This is a night out, not a sunset patio. 21+ when they say so. This week: House Rules #02, Sat 9pm.

The Lighthouse Huntington

Downtown / Main · check their board

Country and live nights. Not the pier plaza.

HQ Gastropub

Huntington Beach

House and DJ nights. Confirm the room before you promise a table.

Regular

Pacific City live-music room

21022 PCH · former Old Crow Smokehouse

Old Crow closed (last service late 2025). The upstairs ocean-view room has been in turnover — live-music bar planned. We will name the operator when the door says it, not before. Until then: Pacific City still has outdoor dining and rotating patio sound, not a guaranteed stage.

Playing a room we missed? Date, time, door cost, all-ages or not: hello@thisweekhb.com. This week: events.
