Thanksgiving weekend in the Sacramento area tends to fill up fast with parades, tree lightings, and holiday markets. But for those who want a night out that has nothing to do with tinsel or toy drives, Harris Center for the Arts in Folsom has something different lined up: a full Eagles tribute concert the Saturday after Thanksgiving.
Starbright Entertainment brings One of These Nights: Songs of The Eagles to Harris Center on Saturday, November 28, 2026, at 7:30 PM. The band behind the show has local Folsom roots and has spent years recreating the Eagles’ catalog live—the layered harmonies, the jangling guitars, the sweep from country-rock ballads to arena-rock anthems that made the Eagles one of the best-selling acts of all time.
What the Show Is
The Eagles’ catalog is deceptively hard to pull off live. Songs like “Hotel California,” “Desperado,” and “Take It to the Limit” depend almost entirely on vocal blend—three or four singers locking together in a way that sounds effortless but isn’t. When tribute bands get it right, it can feel close to the real thing. When they don’t, it’s apparent within the first verse.
Starbright Entertainment has built its reputation on getting that blend right. The company describes the production as a recreation of the feel of an Eagles concert, with attention to the instrumental detail and vocal polish that audiences expect from classic-rock tribute shows. For fans who never saw the Eagles live, or who saw them and want to relive that sound, a Saturday night at Harris Center with the volume turned up is a reasonable substitute.
November 28 is the Saturday of Thanksgiving weekend—Small Business Saturday in Folsom’s Historic District as well. Folsom tends to be livelier than usual that weekend, with Sutter Street buzzing and restaurants full. Tacking an evening concert onto a day of holiday shopping or a family gathering nearby is straightforward to arrange.
What to Expect at Harris Center
Harris Center for the Arts sits on the Folsom Lake College campus and holds around 2,500 seats in its main hall. The sightlines from most sections are good, and the acoustic profile suits live music. It’s the same venue that hosts the Harris Center Presents series throughout the fall and winter—if you’ve been to Folsom for any of the other shows this season, you already know the drill.
Parking is available on the college campus. Folsom’s light rail station is about a mile away, so driving is the more practical option for most people coming from Sacramento or the suburbs, but it’s manageable. Plan to arrive early if you’re coming from the freeway on a Saturday night when the Thanksgiving weekend traffic is still moving through town.
Tickets are available online through the Harris Center website or by calling the box office. The box office phone number is (916) 608-6888. The show is a single evening with no Sunday matinee listed, so there is only one opportunity to see it.

A Few More Shows at Harris Center This Fall
If you’re already planning to be at Harris Center this season, it’s worth knowing what else is on the calendar nearby. ELF The Musical runs November 4 through 9, and Big Bad Voodoo Daddy brings its holiday swing show to the stage on November 20. For those who want to stick around deeper into the holiday season, Sister’s Christmas Catechism opens November 28 as well—though that’s a different show in a different venue configuration, so check Harris Center’s site to confirm which hall each production is using.
Bottom Line
If the Eagles are part of your household’s music DNA—and for a lot of Sacramento-area families, they are—One of These Nights is a practical choice for Thanksgiving weekend. The date works: it’s the Saturday after the holiday, it’s in Folsom, and it’s done by 10. The band has a local connection and a track record of delivering the harmonies and the catalog.
Tickets won’t last if the past shows in this series are any guide. Check harriscenter.net or call (916) 608-6888 to secure seats before the holiday weekend push begins.
