Big Sunday happily welcomes you to Our Really Big Community Calendar

We try to include all kinds of volunteering and helping opportunities for all kinds of interests, talents, passions, and ages! As you’ll see, these include volunteering opportunities (one-time and long-term) as well as the chance to support a nonprofit by attending fundraising events. Plus, of course, we include all of Big Sunday’s homegrown events, too! Whoever you are, and whatever you do, there is someone out there who could use your help.

If you have questions about our calendar, or would like to add a listing, please contact calendar@bigsunday.org or submit your event/opportunity via the button below.

Music Tastes Good Festival @ Downtown Long Beach, CA
Sep 23 – Sep 26 all-day

Long Beach’s brand new music and food festival, Music Tastes Good, will be taking over downtown Long Beach September 23-25, 2016 with substantial talent including The Specials, Iron & Wine, Squeeze and Warpaint amongst many others. Prices start at $25 for single day passes with a limited number of 3-Day GA passes available for $120.

Josh Fischel, creator and curator of the festival, is a Long Beach native who has toured the world with his own band Bargain Music for over nine years. “Being the world class city we are, we have been long overdue a festival that mirrors the passion and diversity that we experience from our neighbors every day” says Fischel. His dream is to bring the community together with incredible local food and exciting musical acts that range from global to local.
