Summer in the City

The future feels like a summer of celebration!

San Diegans have put in the work. We protected our communities during stay-at-home orders. And we got vaccinated to keep each other safe and reopen our economy.

What we deserve to celebrate is the summer in the city we have all waited a year and a half for 

 

DOWNTOWN SAN DIEGO’S SUMMER IN THE CITY

Downtown San Diego is open for business and ready to welcome you back for urban adventuring. To celebrate, the Downtown San Diego Partnership is here to fill your summer bucket list with great events, family-friendly activities, outdoor recreation, and exciting dining!

So whether it’s the Big Bay Boom, a rooftop movie, a night market stroll, free yoga, poolside jazz, or the inaugural season at The Rady Shell at Jacobs Park, there’s a Downtown adventure waiting to welcome you back.

Summer in the City Giveaway

San Diego is known for our incredible year-round outdoor lifestyle, so there’s no reason that Labor Day should mean a stop to summer fun! Our Summer in the City campaign is offering summer enthusiasts a chance to win giveaways, see the latest and greatest Downtown hot spots, and pursue event listings from our community calendar. We invite all San Diegans and visitors alike to keep the long-anticipated summer of 2021 sizzling in style with free giveaways and events held throughout Downtown’s urban neighborhoods with our “Summer in the City” campaign.
