The Arroyo Seco Weekend is celebrating its second year in Pasadena in 2018. The event’s first day featured plenty of music from the likes of Jack White, Neil Young, the Pretenders, Jeff Goldblum (!), and more. Plus there were cool art installations, perfect for your Instagram photos, plenty of chill spots to hang out, and numerous options for craft cocktails, beer, and food.
Here are some photos from the first day of the 2018 fest that show what it was like at the festival, which is held at the Brookside Golf Course, next to the Rose Bowl.
