Outdoor festivities continue through the summer and into fall on the Oakland waterfront. Throughout the month of September, Jack London Square is packed with something for everyone including the Bay Area’s largest foodie festival, outdoor sing-along movies and more. Visitors can enjoy events during the day and outdoor dining in the evening at several waterfront restaurants including Jack’s Oyster Bar & Fish House, Plank, Bocanova, Haven, Lungomare, Rosenblum Cellars and more.

The Sing-Along Cinema series brings a lively evening of song and dance to Jack London Square with a free screening of the popular musical Mamma Mia! on Thursday, September 3. Both families and film fanatics will enjoy this special showing at sundown, along with the theatrical troupe Barely Legal as they sing and dance along with the movie. Filmgoers are encouraged to show up in costume dressed as their favorite characters, and enjoy pre-event festivities including costume contests, games, prizes and more!

For three spectacular days, the Oakland waterfront will transform into an epic festival of delicious eats with the  annual Eat Real Festival, a celebration of good food. Free to attend, Eat Real celebrates all things tasty, fresh and handmade with a focus on local, organic and sustainable ingredients. No dish costs more than $8. Eat Real will take place Friday, September 18 through Sunday, September 20.

Jack of All Trades returns on September 12, with more than 100 local vendors and makers selling handcrafted items, designs, art, specialty food products, antiques, memorabilia and more.
