THe band Decades promoting a show at The Barn in Meriam Park on May 8th, 2026

Decades

Decades is one of Northern California's most in-demand live bands, playing crowd-pleasing hits from Chuck Berry to Katy Perry. These guys don't just perform — they pack dance floors. Upgraded Living Magazine called them "pitch-perfect" and said they rock "in a way that most people did not come adequately prepared for." Consider this your warning.

📅 Friday, May 8th

🕖 Doors open at 7pm — show runs 8pm to 10pm

Origins of The Barn

Deconstructed from a dairy ranch on Meridian Road and reconstructed in its current spot here in Meriam Park, the 110 year old Barn offers a unique gathering space for the community while honoring Chico’s history.

Once a home for farm machinery, The Barn is now home to community gatherings, musical performances, vendor markets, weddings, parties, fundraisers and more.
