Garratt Wilkin & The Parrotheads are scheduled to perform at Pleasanton's Firehouse Arts Center at 7:30 p.m. PDT Friday, Oct. 9, 2026.

The Northern California band performs Jimmy Buffett's music and has been together since 1999, according to the city venue's event listing. The band's own calendar also lists the Pleasanton appearance.

The show is at 4444 Railroad Ave. The Firehouse lists tickets at $35 to $43 and says its tickets include a $3 processing fee. Credit and debit card payments to the city carry an additional 2.5% convenience fee; cash and check payments do not.

The box office opens two hours before ticketed performances. Online sales end 30 minutes before showtime, after which purchases must be made at the box office. The venue says everyone entering the theater needs a ticket.

Readers can check the official event page for the ticket link and current options. The listing does not establish how many seats remain.
