10Best's San Francisco Events

Such a gorgeous city that unites so many talents, so many ethnicities, so much wealth and creativity must necessarily have occasions to showcase them. And so it does. San Francisco finds reason to celebrate almost constantly, and both yearly festivities and one-time events keep residents and visitors busy with good causes and good times. All of these happenings easily prove the effusive spirit that local folks have, and they practically advertise what is important to San Francisco. Ghirardelli Chocolate Festival, for instance, acknowledges the well-known hometown company and the love of food and community that runs throughout the city. Also prominent is the Chinese New Year Festival & Parade, which pays tribute to a significant Asian population and the incredible traditions that continue to distinguish it. Similarly, Castro Street Fair gives a shout-out to one of the city's most esteemed neighborhoods, highlighting its vibrant gay and lesbian population and showing off San Francisco's love of merriment and life. The Fringe Festival, too, gives voice to the region's alternative crowd, allowing innovation, experimentation, and performance to mesh in a theater of artistry and spectacle. And so it is with music and holidays and film and much, much more. Any time you're searching, an event is sure to be on hand. Simply follow the laughter, look for the crowds, and breathe deeply of the City by the Bay.
