Whether it's challenging the audience with the sweeping sounds of the majestic grand opera or scaling down the approach while still retaining the melodic attraction with its various light opera presentations, the Stockton Opera always maintains an impressive level of showmanship and professionalism that has won over audience after audience. For the latest information on upcoming productions, entertainment and special events, make sure to regularly check its website.

With the arrival of June also comes the arrival of one of Northern California's premier county fairs, the San Joaquin County Fair. Everyone looks forward to this festival as it is five full days of fun, music, food and frivolity. A big-name concert is always the center point of the action, but the fair offers plenty of other great activities that include a carnival, a livestock show, plenty of fun and interactive exhibits.

Striking out is a good thing when the whole family heads out to Pacific Avenue Bowl. This is one of Stockton's favorite places for great family fun. This bowling facility has been one of the city's most iconic attractions, as it has had its doors (and bowling lanes) open since 1958. Despite its impressive vintage, the venue offers state-of-the-art bowling, a great gaming area, snack bar and more that creates a highly comfortable environment that's safe, enjoyable and perfect for the whole family.
