Annual West Coast Ragtime Festival

The Society, as you've come to expect, will once again put together a fantastic performer lineup, special shows, seminars, and dancing. Make your room reservations, and purchase your badges early to take advantage of the discounted prices and start planning for another terrific ragtime festival.

We are proud to say we produce the world's premiere annual ragtime festival in the Sacramento area, the ragtime capital of the world! There's lots of great music performed by the finest musicians from inside and outside the U.S., spread over three days.

There will be three venues all on the ground floor level of the hotel, which run simultaneously, almost nonstop throughout the three days of the festival, including dancing. They do close for short periods on a rotating schedule for piano tuning and room setup. In addition, there are ragtime stores where you can purchase our performers' music, as well as various goodies like vintage clothing, records and more.

Schedule of Events:

3:00 pm - 3:50 pm: Joan - Castle Schottische and other QQS variations
4:00 pm - 4:50 pm: Joan - Four Short One Step combinations
