11/11, make a wish!!! But more importantly today, thank a veteran. ❤️🤍💙

It’s Veterans Day, and I want to keep things a little shorter around here today to make space for what the day is actually about.

San Diego is deeply connected to the military community, and today we honor the veterans who have served our country, along with the families + communities who have supported them along the way. And of course, sending love to those currently serving too.

Whether you have the day off or you’re still clocked in, take a moment somewhere in it to recognize the people who have served.

To every veteran reading this: thank you for your service!

AT LEAST TRY TO WIN SOME TICKETS

Well, while you’re already here, you might as well win something. I’ve got a whole page of giveaways live right now, so go snoop around and throw your name into a few hats.

After all, it is 11/11 today …

THIS FRIDAY… THE 13TH 🕷️

LOCALS ONLY

• Three San Diego attractions, zero admission today. Veterans, active duty + first responders can get free access to the Old Town Trolley, SEAL Tour + a daytime Whaley House visit. Get the details!

• If you’re spending Veterans Day downtown, bring your credentials: the Navy SEAL Museum + City Cruises both have free offers for veterans today. See the offers!

• A tiny civic holiday gift for everyone: City of San Diego parking meters are NOT enforced today. Neither are street time limits, yellow zones + posted street sweeping. Red, white + blue curbs still mean business. See today’s City service changes!

• You know that former Panera in The Hub that’s been sitting empty since 2018? Tomorrow it finally becomes Josie’s, an old-school diner with Midwest comfort food, pies + proper booth seating. See inside Josie’s!
