Yes, it’s cold. Yes, we’ve all forgotten how to drive in light rain. But no, we’re not letting this week freeze over without a win. Let’s turn up the temp with a little Boise-bound magic…

Five days. Four hundred artists. One downtown that loses its mind. Treefort Music Fest 2026 is the indie kid’s Coachella – and we’re sending you there like royalty. Win 2 Premiere Passes, a hotel stay, and a $600 travel credit to Boise, ID (3/25–3/29). Skip the lines with Zipline access. Chill in the VIP Lookout Lounge. Catch sets from Father John Misty, flipturn, Magdalena Bay, and more – all while living your best, unbothered, elevated fest life.*

JUST ANNOUNCED

• You’ve heard them on the radio. You’ve yelled their lyrics in traffic. Now you can do it with hundreds of other humans at Viejas Casino when Lady A rolls into town on 3/19.

• You can tell when someone means it. Jim Ward has always meant it – in every scream, strum, and lyric. Catch him solo at Casbah on 1/12, bringing his full alt-rock emotional toolkit to one of SD’s most iconic stages.

• The Midlife Mixtape Tour is not just about getting older – it’s about getting real. Cristela Alonzo turns everyday chaos into stand-up gold, and her Balboa Theatre stop on 3/14 promises big laughs and deep truths.

• UK house godfather Eats Everything hits Bloom Nightclub on 2/6, and if you're even mildly into electronic music, this is non-optional.

• Plus other just-announced shows from BANE, Cheap Trick, Parker McCollum, Little Orphan Alex, Valentino Khan, and more!

GUIDE TO GOOD SOUP AROUND SAN DIEGO

SD’s forecast: 70% chance of drizzle, 100% chance of you needing soup. So we made a guide. All killer, no filler. Just bowls of hot, liquid salvation from all over the city. Get it while it’s steamy.

TOMORROW NIGHT

LOCALS ONLY

• San Diego FC’s helping serve 18,000 meals this Thanksgiving with the SD Food Bank. Bring non-perishables to Monday’s match and be part of something real. We love footy and feeding people.

• San Diego lost a legend. Padres Hall of Famer Randy Jones – Cy Young winner, fan favorite, and forever Lefty in our hearts – has passed. Our city won’t forget the man or the magic.
