Beaver Dam Jam Returns Full Force
Driving by the Beaver Dam Station and Bar, you might not think to stop if you don’t live in Beaver Dam, Arizona, but you’ll be missing a lot if you don’t!
Here you will find the center of the Beaver Dam Community, the heart. Beaver Dam Station and Bar has been operating in Beaver Dam, Arizona, for over 40 years. It serves as the local grocery store and Beaver Dam Bar next door, as a local gathering place where lifetime friendships are formed. Owned and operated by Bill Evans since 1979, its doors are open to all. Bill has held annual dinners for Thanksgiving and Christmas at no cost to patrons. These are in addition to the many barbeques and potluck dinners (Bill provides the main dishes) held for birthdays, Halloween, other holidays such as Memorial Day and Fourth of July, and for celebrations of life when friends and loved ones have passed.
Are you looking for fun? You will find it at the monthly lawnmower races (the second Saturday of each month starting at 11 AM Arizona time, and joining in for karaoke two nights a week, Wednesday and Friday, beginning at 5 PM at the Beaver Dam Bar. And often they feature bands on Saturday nights.
Our big annual event that folks from St. George to Mesquite and beyond have anticipated and enjoyed for 15 years (except for 2020 due to COVID) is the Beaver Dam Jam. A 3-day musical festival features local and regional bands, on multiple stages, coming from as far away as Oklahoma and California to Nevada and Utah, showcasing all different genres (country, rock-n-roll, reggae, folk).
The Beaver Dam Jam Street Festival will be held Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, May 6, 7, and 8, 2022. Feature acts include Vinyl Fusion, Bottoms Up, Tom Proctor Band, Kimmee B, Rick Wall, Aaron Christiansen, and more.
In addition to the bands’ festival, there will be artisans and other vendors displaying and selling their unique wares. Food, drinks, and other goodies will be available, including the Best Beaver Burger Ever! (No, it is hamburger) at the Red Wagon Eats, the newest addition at the Beaver Dam Station and Bar. The music festival starts at 2 PM on Friday and at noon Saturday and Sunday. Vendors will be setting up and selling as early as 10 AM on all three days. Vendor spaces are $10/day or $25 for all three days.

We’ll see ya in Beaver Dam!
