Golden Gate Park Temple of Music In 1899, with the prodding of his son, Park Commissioner Adolph Spreckels, Claus Spreckels donated the Temple of Music to Golden Gate Park. At the formal dedication of the Concourse and ‘bandshell’ on Sept. 5th 1900, Claus addressed a crowd 75,000 and proclaimed “This noble pleasure ground will doubtless be the chief scene of the open air festivities of the people of California and indeed of the whole Pacific Coast for all time to come.”  And so it has, hosting musians from John Phillips Sousa and Pavarotti, to the Grateful Dead, to Koalapalooza! 110 years after it was first erected. Join us at the first annual Koalapalooza! as we celebrate this beautiful tradition of music, civic beauty, and charity Saturday, June 19th, 2010!
