A hidden treasure in itself, Balboa Park is San Diego's ever-changing, always amazing 1,200-acre backyard and is worthy of a visit as much as an attraction. Start exploring arts & culture, must-see landmarks, engage in guided tours, shop for unexpected treasures, or simply eat your way through the Park. Walk, run, or relax among lush landscapes, sweeping architecture and natural wonders. The park is expansive, with its lush grass and scenery perfect for laying out on a blanket or just sitting on a bench and people watching as the afternoon unfolds. If you need to take a breather, there's no better place than Balboa Park!

The San Diego Film Festival's goal is to bring much-due attention and positivity to the art of independent film making. The individuals who produce, direct, and star in the featured movies get their time and attention in the spotlight, as a plethora of parties, workshops and special events are always on the itinerary. This glamorous and glitzy event is held every year in the Gaslamp Quarter.

San Diego loves its football, and every season when the San Diego Chargers hits the gridiron, the fans pack Qualcomm Stadium to cheer their favorite sports team on to victory. From the season's early moments at training camp in August all the way through the playoffs in December, fans stay amped up for their Chargers!
