Summer Events

Supervisor Joel Anderson's office has compiled a short list of free and family-friendly summer events happening this summer in San Diego County. Take a look and enjoy some of the things our communities have to offer this summer!

 

This list is not exhaustive, and if we accidentally missed your local event, we'd love to include it— as long as it's free and open to the public. Please email Ian.Harper@sdcounty.ca.gov and we'd be happy to get it added to the list.
