The Cow Palace, located in the greater San Francisco Bay Area, hosts well over one hundred events yearly with a total of over one million people in attendance.

The March 23, 1974 Grateful Dead concert was not just a landmark in the career of The Grateful Dead but in the history of concert production. This was the show that unveiled arguably the greatest P. A. system of all time, the Dead’s fabled “Wall of Sound.”
