The Grateful Dead's
60th Anniversary

Come to San Francisco this summer for a groovy celebration.

Grateful Dead

The Grateful Dead’s 60th anniversary marks six decades of musical exploration, countercultural influence, and a devoted fanbase that continues to thrive. From their humble beginnings in 1965 to becoming one of the most legendary jam bands in history, the Dead’s improvisational spirit, genre-blending sound, and timeless message of community and freedom have left an indelible mark on music and culture. Whether through surviving members, spin-off projects like Dead & Company, or the ever-loyal Deadhead community, their legacy lives on, proving that the music never stops.
