Felton Music Hall

Felton Music Hall occupies one of the most storied music rooms in the Santa Cruz Mountains, a 400-capacity hall at 6275 Highway 9 with a history stretching back through the legendary Don Quixote's International Music Hall to a mid-century dinner and dancing venue that locals have been talking about for generations. The old wood of the building has been absorbing music for decades, and it shows in the warmth of the acoustics, which touring artists consistently praise. Reborn in 2019 under the Ineffable Music Group, the hall now hosts a rich mix of national touring acts and carefully developed local talent in a setting that feels both historic and fully alive. Billy Bob Thornton has played here and wandered down the street to the local gem store on a whim afterward. That is the kind of town Felton is, and Felton Music Hall is exactly the kind of venue it deserves.
