SF Major Events, Conferences, Festivals & Parades
San Francisco likes to have it’s events all over the city from festivals, parades, conferences and more. It’s a pain to keep up with the major ones each year, whether you:
are trying to decide when to visit (to avoid expensive hotels),
are figuring out how to plan for major road closures,
are trying to get out of town to avoid loud festivals, fireworks,
are assessing buyouts for your restaurant, hotel
are planning on driving into the city for surge pricing
are planning to post flyers for your events, services,
are looking to network with folks passing through town, or
are disabling your dating apps so you avoid out-of-town folks flooding your feed (and lying about their locations).
Some you may be aware of, others not so much. This information is useful to help avoid ticketing or towing that may occur if you happen to leave town during these major events or figure out how many people plan to pass through the areas that day, weekend etc. (figures provided for previous year or expected when available).
There are currently over 45 events listed below, I will add more depending on interest, announcements and as well as additional research into the bigger conferences i.e. 5k-10K attendance. I may also add notes about type of industry conference (tech, medical etc) in the next update.
This list does not include recurring events, just annual conferences, festivals, major parades and more in San Francisco.
