One list for Los Gatos, downtown to the Summit
A free event listing for Los Gatos and Monte Sereno, from the 85 up to the Summit Road wineries.
I'm Rob. I live in Los Gatos, and we've been Testarossa wine club members for more than ten years. What's on in town is spread across the Chamber, the Town, the Library and a dozen venue pages, so I put it on one list. If you notice something missing or wrong, send me a note or find me on LinkedIn. That's Millie, our sheepadoodle, who came into our lives through California Doodle Rescue. She has strong opinions about which events involve food.
One list
The Chamber, the Town, the Library and the venues each keep their own calendar. This puts them in one place.
Rob's Picks
Not everything is worth finding parking for. I flag the ones that are.

Kids and families
A lot of what happens here is built around kids: storytimes at the Library on Villa Ave, the Billy Jones Wildcat Railroad and its 1915 carousel at Oak Meadow Park, St. Mary's Country Fair in October and the Children's Holiday Parade in December. Anything in the Kids category on the main page is a good place to start.
