Street Scene founder Rob Hagey joined forces with Casbah’s Tim Mays this year in hopes to reinvent the festival by bringing it back home. “This is a return to our roots both musically–with a band like X who played our first year in 1984–and our location that started in the streets of downtown San Diego,” stated Hagey. “This year’s line-up–with acts like DeVotchKa, Spiritualized and Hot Chip–and being back in the streets will have such a cool vibe with so many great indie artists in an urban setting.”

There will only be a limited number of two-day tickets and they can only be found here
