Somehow, it’s the last full week of June. No clue how we got here, but let’s distract ourselves with something fun: Mora is bringing the hits to Cal Coast Open Air Theatre on 11/2, and we’re giving away tickets. Future you will appreciate the foresight. Current you should probably enter now!
JUST ANNOUNCED
San Diego’s own slow-burn soul revivalists return. Thee Sacred Souls play a long-awaited hometown set at Cal Coast Theatre on 10/3. Tickets drop this week – act like you’ve been waiting (because you have).
Oscar winner. Cannes alum. Star: one lone cat. Flow hits the big screen at Jacobs Music Center on 11/23, scored live by the San Diego Symphony. It’s poetry in motion, with a full string section to match.
If your playlist jumps from glitch-pop to industrial chaos, you already get it. Poppy hits The Observatory on 9/30 with the They’re All Around Us Tour, and tickets are already live!
Maoli’s back in San Diego and the forecast is pure rhythm. Their Last Sip of Summer Tour stops at The Rady Shell 7/18 for one final pour of feel-good anthems. Sun’s out, sound’s on, tickets in.*
Plus, other just-announced shows from Meatbodies, Robin Trower, 12th Planet, Chris Travis, and more!
FREE SUMMER CONCERTS
Free shows. Real ones. All across San Diego. All in the name of SUMMER. From big parks to unexpected corners, the city’s got a full lineup of concerts that won’t touch your wallet. Tap into the full guide and start building your calendar.

THIS WEEK
⚾️ San Diego Padres vs. Washington Nationals
Today - Wednesday @ Petco Park
No one said Monday had to suck. The Padres kick off the week with three straight home games against Washington. That’s 27 innings (minimum) of loud, local baseball before you even hit Thursday. Let the chaos begin.
🎸 Elvis Costello & The Imposters with Charlie Sexton
Tomorrow @ Humphrey’s Concerts By the Bay (7:30PM)
If you think Elvis Costello is just for your dad’s record shelf, you’re doing music wrong. He’s rolling in with The Imposters and Charlie Sexton for a set that proves punk sensibility ages like a good insult. File this under “still legendary.”
✨ Quinn XCII w/ Chelsea Cutler
Wednesday @ San Diego County Fair and Del Mar Fairgrounds (7:30PM)
Quinn XCII and Chelsea Cutler have mastered the art of making emotional spiral music sound like summer. If you’ve ever cried in a parking lot or romanticized a situationship, this one’s for you.
🎺 Mitchum Yacoub and The Brass Empire, Adam Macdougall & Isaiah Mitchell Duo, Helena Holleran
Thursday @ Belly Up (8PM)
Consider this your midweek genre cleanse. Mitchum Yacoub and The Brass Empire headline a night that swings from psychedelic swirls to dubby brass to soul-drenched slow burns. And yes, there’s more on the lineup.
🛼 Downtown Skate By The Bay
Opens Friday - Wednesday, July 9 @ Marriott Marquis San Diego Marina
Downtown Skate opens Friday, which means the rink is in session. It won’t be here for long, so grab a friend, lace up, and glide into summer. Ride share recommended unless you love a parking challenge.*
LOCALS ONLY
Think you’ve got what it takes to survive Casa Amor? Love Island is popping up in PB this Saturday with cameras and just enough chaos to test your main character energy. Walk in single, leave with a casting tape.
