The United States military's presence in San Diego is a vital, essential part of its fabric of life. To get a glimpse into the sacrifices and service that these very special men and women have made for our country, visit the San Diego Air and Space Museum.

Grab a performance at the San Diego Junior Theatre, a venue that takes pride in consistently presenting the area's top talent, and where youngsters take their thespian aspirations quite seriously. San Diego Junior Theatre has the distinction of being one of the oldest children's theaters in the United States since opening its doors in 1948.

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!

San Diego's unbreakable tie to the military through its presence and significance in the area is recognized and celebrated during Fleet Week, held every September.
