Sammy Hagar has a long history with Los Cabos, discovering the destination in the 1980s and opening the Cabo Wabo Cantina just years later in 1990.   

Since then he has spent a lot of time in Los Cabos, to vacation, to perform, and to hold his annual birthday bash.   

Now the time has come again to score your tickets for Los Cabos’s party of the year because rock legend Sammy Hagar is returning to Cabo for another legendary birthday bash.   

Sammy Hagar’s 2024 Cabo Birthday Bash 

This year Sammy Hagar will be turning 77 and celebrating with his annual bash at Cabo Wabo Cantina in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.   

The party, which is the 34th Birthday Bash, will take place on two days, October 11th and 13th.   

Each year Hagar performs at his birthday bash, along with other musicians, many of which are surprise guests.   

Getting Tickets To The Bash 

Regular sales of tickets to Sammy’s Annual Birthday Bash have already concluded, but there is still a way to get tickets.   

The kicker is that you have to be there before the show to get the tickets and they are sold on a first-come, first-serve basis.   

They will be sold on October 8th, 10th, and 12th, starting at 9:00 am each day, at Cabo Wabo Cantina.   

These tickets are for the “Dinner Shows,” which will be at 6:00, 7:30, and 9:00 pm each day.   

Sammy Hagar’s Birthday Bashes Over The Years 

Nearly all of the last 33 Birthday Bashes have been held at Cabo Wabo Cantina in Cabo San Lucas.   

All except for four of them.   

Twice it was relocated due to hurricanes, and twice it was relocated because of the COVID-19 pandemic.   

Birthday Bash Events 

Each year different musicians perform at Sammy Hagar’s Birthday Bash parties.   

Sammy Hagar himself typically performs with his backup band, the Waboritas.   

Additionally, there are usually announced and surprise guests for the Sammy Hagar & Friends concerts.   

This year performers that have been announced include Michael Anthony, Vic Johnson, and Kenny Aronoff.   

In the past famous faces like Joan Jett, Dave Grohl, Stevie Wonder, and Bono have shown up for the party.   

The Story Of Sammy Hagar And Cabo Wabo Cantina 

Sammy Hagar’s first visit to Cabo San Lucas was in the 1980s, and it seems as though it was love at first sight.  Back then it was just a small fishing village and only had one hotel.   

On Sammy’s second visit he started thinking about opening a little tequila bar, which he did in 1990, and today we all know it as Cabo Wabo Cantina.   

Since then the Cabo Wabo Cantina brand has grown to include another location located in fabulous Las Vegas as well, where Birthday Bash events will also be held this year. 

Sammy Hagar’s Dedicated Fans 

Sammy Hagar, who grew to epic fame while playing for the well-known band Van Halen, has built up a huge following of dedicated fans.   

Referred to as the “Redheads,” these fans are often the first to buy up the tickets to Sammy Hagar’s annual Birthday Bash.   

Additionally, hundreds of fans are known to show up at the Cabo Wabo Cantina to buy tickets in person and attend the event.   

Getting Tickets To Next Year’s Bash 

Tickets to the Birthday Bash are initially sold to drawing winners.   

Drawing winners only have just a couple of weeks to purchase the tickets once their names are drawn.   

Those that are left after the initial sale are then sold sometime around July, on a first come, first serve basis. 

So, if you want to get tickets to next year’s bash you should head over to the Red Rocker website to find out how to get on the drawing list.
