Happy Friday, San Diego. If you haven’t screamed “WAIT IS IT RAINING?” at least once today, are you even a local? Double-check those weekend plans – we’ve got drizzle, event cancellations, and one hell of a ticket giveaway to save your week.
The best gift you’ll get this holiday season? A damn near spiritual night of music under the stars. We’re talking Mumford & Sons, Lord Huron, Sierra Ferrell, and Lily Meola — all at San Diego’s Petco Park on 12/27. We’re giving away 2 VIP tix, a hotel stay, and $600 in travel credit. That’s not just a concert – that’s a full send.*
JUST ANNOUNCED
Fresh off international festivals and late-night slot domination, What So Not is landing in San Diego this March for an intimate club set at Bloom.
Zakk Wylde’s beard alone could headline a tour – but he’s bringing the whole damn band. Black Label Society hits Harrah’s on 3/12 with crushing riffs, biker energy, and that signature blues-meets-metal punch.
Twenty years since it dropped, “Lemonade” still hits like a funky sunbeam. G. Love & Special Sauce are bringing their bluesy grooves back for a special anniversary tour, and Belly Up’s the perfect vibe for it.
Fresh off Love Sick and features with everyone from Travis Scott to Kali Uchis, Don Toliver rolls into NOVA on 12/4 with hypnotic vibes and hits that soundtrack every 2am craving.
Plus, other just-announced shows from Tijuana Panthers, Mask Appeal, Jeffrey Lewis & The Voltage, Gary Wilson and the Blind Dates, and more!
FREE FUN FRIDAY
Here’s the secret: the best stuff isn’t always behind a ticket link. Sometimes it’s at a hidden DJ set in the park, or a gallery party with free drinks. And sometimes it’s right here, in this little guide. Click it and go outside. It’s free.

TONIGHT
⭐️ YES
Tonight @ Viejas Casino (8PM)
It’s happening tonight: YES in the park, playing Fragile front to back. If “Owner of a Lonely Heart” means anything to you, this is the kind of night you make the trip to the casino for. Last chance to grab tickets.*
🩰 World Ballet Company: Cinderella
Tonight @ San Diego Civic Theatre (7:30PM)
The glass slipper. The carriage. The dramatic costume reveals. World Ballet Company’s Cinderella is high drama, high elegance, and surprisingly hilarious — it’s the fairy tale you think you know, but more fun.
🎄Lightscape 2025
Tonight @ San Diego Botanic Garden (5PM)
This isn’t your neighbor’s sad holiday decor. Lightscape 2025 opens tonight, featuring next-level installations by international artists that transform the garden into a glowing, music-filled maze of wonder.
🎸 Mating Ritual, Low Hum
Today @ Casbah (8:30PM)
Fans of LCD Soundsystem, Tame Impala, and grooving alone in your kitchen at 2am – this show is for you. Mating Ritual and Low Hum are the kind of bands that sound better live, louder, and with a drink in hand.
🌺 La Jolla Music Society: Disney's Moana Live-To-Film Concert
Today @ Balboa Theatre (6PM)
If you’ve never done a live-to-film concert before, this is the perfect one to start. Moana is vibrant, emotional, and musically rich – the live orchestra brings out layers you didn’t even know were in there.
LOCALS ONLY
Fireside Film turns November into a vibe. Sit under the stars with skyline views, order a drink (or three), and watch flicks picked by people who actually love movies.
'Tis the season to give back – and Latitude 32 is making it easy. Drop a toy in their Toys for Tots box and know you're making a kid’s holiday actually magical.
