April 25, 2025

Happy Friday, inbox scrollers. Whether you’re dodging meetings or daydreaming about your weekend, we’ve got something for your future calendar: Josh Radnor (yes, Ted Mosby himself) and Ari Tibi at the Voodoo Room. We’re giving away a pair of tickets – enter to win!

JUST ANNOUNCED

  • Ryan Adams is bringing his Heartbreaker ‘25 Tour to The Magnolia, and we’ve got a pair of tickets with your name on ‘em. If you’ve ever cried in a car to “Oh My Sweet Carolina,” this is your moment. Enter now!*

  • Deltron 3030 hits House of Blues with Kid Koala and Lealani in tow. Futuristic beats, alt-rap nostalgia, and scratch-heavy weirdness collide for one night only. Sci-fi hip-hop heads, this is your rare planetary alignment. Tickets just dropped!

  • Bryan Adams is rolling through Viejas Arena with Pat Benatar and Neil Giraldo – because apparently the '80s never left, they just waited for the right tour name. One night, three legends, zero filler.

  • Toro y Moi and Panda Bear are teaming up for a night that’s part dream sequence, part indie history lesson. Add a set from Kassie Krut and the bayfront backdrop at Humphreys, and you’ve got something special. We’re giving away a pair of tickets – enter to win.*

  • Plus, other just-announced shows from Above & Beyond, Craig Robinson, Heart, Band of Horses, Iron and Wine, Yellow Claw, and more!

FREE FUN FRIDAY IN SAN DIEGO

Whoever said nothing good in life is free clearly never spent a day in San Diego. Around here, you don't need a trust fund or a winning lotto ticket to have a full calendar. We rounded up the best ways to max out your fun without touching your wallet — you're welcome.

TONIGHT

⚾️ San Diego Padres vs. Tampa Bay Rays

Tonight @ Petco Park (6:40PM)

​Padres are 17–8, leading the NL West with a .680 winning percentage and a +29 run differential. Tonight, they face the Rays – time to keep the momentum going.

✅ Bingo Loco

Tonight @ Quartyard (7PM)

Bingo Loco isn’t about daubers and polite claps – it’s part rave, part game show, and fully unhinged. Think dance-offs, lip sync battles, and throwback anthems all wrapped in one chaotic night. It’s bingo, but make it nightlife.

🔥 Nimino

Tonight @ Spin (9PM)

UK-based producer Nimino is carving out space where electronic, hip-hop, and ambient sounds overlap. His tracks are subtle but layered, built for deep listens or late-night drives. Grab your last-minute tickets to see him live tonight!

🍺 Frühlingsfest

Tonight - Sunday @ Pure Project - Vista Brewery & Taproom (12PM)

Frühlingsfest is rolling into all Pure Project taprooms with stein refills, local bites, and good beer energy across the board. Vista brings the music, North Park’s serving up pizza and wings, and Miramar and Balboa Park have empanadas on deck. Bring your Pure Project stein and get it filled on the cheap.
