If this weekend was any indication, San Diego is entering its perfect weather era. Blue skies, ocean air, and the first waves of migrating butterflies floating through town like they own the place.

Now imagine leaving that perfect weather for a quick music adventure. SIENNA SPIRO’s Philly show on Friday sold out fast, thanks to a global audience that’s pushed her past 600 million streams. One lucky winner gets the full experience: VIP tickets, a hotel stay, and $600 toward flights. Enter to win - San Diego will be here when you get back!*

JUST ANNOUNCED

• Electronic heavyweight JOYRYDE is hitting NOVA on 5/27, bringing his signature blend of gritty bass house and festival-level energy.

• The Spits have been doing scrappy garage punk since the late ’90s, and they’re still one of the most fun bands in the scene. Catch them 7/14 at Soda Bar, where their wonderfully sloppy live show should feel right at home.

• If you grew up hearing “Ventura Highway” on road trips, this one’s for you. America will play Humphreys Concerts by the Bay on 10/24 as part of their Happy Trails Tour, bringing decades of folk-rock classics.

• Grammy-winning vocalist Yebba brings the Jean Tour to The Observatory on 5/10. Her voice can swing from delicate soul ballads to massive gospel-level power… You may cry, in a good way, of course.

• Plus other just announced shows from The Beach Boys, Built To Spill, Playdead, Mark Farina, The Lagoons, Underscores, and more!
