Street Scene announced their 25th Anniversary line-up today set for Friday, August 28, and Saturday, August 29. Originally hosted on 5th Avenue between J and K Streets in San Diego’s Gaslamp Quarter, this year’s event will be hosted in the heart of the East Village, Tailgate Park (next to Petco Park), encompassing 14th Street as the main area and bordered by Imperial Avenue to J Street.
Street Scene’s founder, Rob Hagey says, “It’s great to get back to our roots,†because “downtown San Diego creates such a great vibe, there’s nothing like it around. The party-like atmosphere that being in the streets makes Street Scene a true urban experience.â€
Tim Mays, who worked closely with Hagey both this year and last when the event returned to downtown San Diego is “really excited with the lineup we’ve created this year. I’ve been involved with the booking since day one on this year’s event, and I think it’s one of the best lineups ever.â€
A limited number of two-day tickets are currently available for limited time at $122.00 each, as well additional event information can be found here.
