Daily Email - Tuesday - 4/29/2025

April 29, 2025

Tuesday’s here, carrying the energy of a second cup of coffee you didn’t really need but went for anyway. Lean into it – and while you’re at it, set your sights on September. We’re giving away a pair of tickets to see Air at Cal Coast Open Air Theatre. Dreamy, nostalgic, and very necessary. Enter to win!*

JUST ANNOUNCED

  • Felly’s soulful flow and surfy beats land at Music Box on 10/25. Expect thoughtful rhymes, vibey grooves, and a whole lotta heart. Lock in tix!

  • Elton John is taking over Petco Park on 5/9 – his only U.S. show this year. Full band, full legends-only energy. Even better? It’s all for a good cause: proceeds fuel cancer research in San Diego. Grab a seat and be part of it.*

  • Dance floors were made for nights like this. Zedd is hitting the San Diego County Fair with Mesto in tow, turning the fairgrounds into one giant bass drop. Funnel cake in one hand, glow stick in the other – that’s called balance.

  • Toro y Moi and Panda Bear are teaming up with Kassie Krut for a night of warped beats and coastal weirdness on May 9. Dreamy, hazy, and just the right amount of off-kilter. If you know, you go. Enter to win tickets!*

  • Plus, other just-announced shows from Dababy, Quinn XCII, Chelsea Cutler, Wookalars, Holy Tears, Savage & The Witch, Shoreline Mafia, and more!
