The Menagerie Oddities Market presents the San Francisco Bay Area's 3rd Annual World Goth Day Festival on May 6, 2023 from 11 am - 8 pm at the historic Empress Theatre in Vallejo. There will be three areas of activation for the festival: the dark art & oddities market along Virginia Street, the Empress Lounge, and the Empress Theatre, all of which will be supported by roaming entertainers, a second outdoor stage, food trucks and no-host bars. This is the only Event of its kind in the state, produced by Bay Area artists, and attracts nearly 2,000 members of the Goth community from all over the West Coast.

The goth subculture is one of the most creative around, so take the day to see or create something new; whether it's a piece of gothic jewelry or clothing, a work of art or even some new music! Get inspired and allow your creative juices to flow black, purple and red!

On a side note... Vallejo’s favorite “Steampunk” scene is a sub-genre of Goth. Imagine a society with highly developed technology that evolved slightly different to how society did. A society that kept steam and the the pride of creating beautiful, well-made, long-lasting things that were used in everyday life from machines to fashion. People of this society enjoy their technology and take great pride in everything that they make. Imagine a world without plastic and with people who enjoy learning and creating!
