Summer Events We’re Glad Are Back This June!

The events industry was hit extremely hard last year due to the pandemic. We all had to go without some of our favorite concerts, festivals, and sporting events. But this summer, some of our favorite gatherings are back in full swing. Here is a list of San Diego events you can finally add back onto your calendar this month!

2. San Diego County Fair | June 11- July 4

Take a trip to the Del Mar Fairgrounds for some home grown fun! Enjoy a 360 view from the top of the ferris wheel or saddle up for a ride on the carousel. Kids can take a chance at driving mini tractors, watch milking demonstrations or plant seeds in Agri-Land. Don’t miss the Swifty Swine Racing Pigs, Godfrey the Magician, or the Home Grown Music series featuring local musicians. 

After all that action you’ll be dying to try some mouth-watering fair foods. Nothing is better than the sweet smell of funnel cake, the crunch of kettle corn, or the tangy flavor of texas BBQ. Why settle for one when you can try them all!

Tickets are $10 and admission is free for ages 5 and younger.

3. San Diego Padres | June 17- September 26

Petco Park opened to season pass holders back in May at 20% capacity, but now in June, single-game tickets for all 46 home games are available for purchase by the general public. The first pitch on June 17 has been moved earlier in the evening to allow for a “2nd Opening Day” celebration with postgame fireworks.

And all of your favorite promotional events are back too! The1st Beerfest takes place the next day on June18 in a game against the Cincinnati Reds. June 20 is a day packed with highlights like Kidsfest, Post Game Catch on the Feild, and celebrations for Military Appreciation Day and Father’s Day.
