Some people do spring cleaning. We prefer spring escaping. Trade your inbox for ocean air and your to-do list for a field of photogenic flowers. That’s why we teamed up with The Westin Carlsbad and The Flower Fields to gift one lucky human a Spring Staycation flex: dreamy hotel, $150 dinner credit to 20|Twenty, and two tickets to 55 acres of flowers. We all deserve a little spring break, so do yourself a favor and enter to win!

JUST ANNOUNCED

• San Diego's own Wavves, the brainchild of Nathan Williams since 2008, returns home to The Observatory on 7/24. Known for their surf-rock and punk energy, they've been making waves since their 2010 album King of the Beach. Tickets go on sale Friday—don't miss out on this hometown throwdown.

• Folk’s chaotic cousin and bluegrass speed demons walk into The Sound on 8/24. Shakey Graves brings the Americana, and Trampled By Turtles brings the frenzy. Together? It’s a double bill that you will regret missing! Grab your tickets!

• Betty Who hits Music Box on 7/2 with her Out of the Darkness Tour – and yes, she’s still the pop anthem queen your queer heart needs. Grab tickets to hear a voice that sounds like 2013 Tumblr came back hotter, wiser, and ready to dance through the chaos.

• What do Iration and Inner Circle have in common? Besides reggae bangers and summer energy – they’re both showing up to Petco Park on 7/20. It’s a lineup that smells like sunscreen and sounds like your favorite playlist. Tickets hit Friday.
