The San Diego Festival of the Arts has made the difficult decision to cancel this year’s festival due to the approaching storm and unsafe conditions.

From the SD Festival of the Arts:

“The safety of our guests, volunteers, artists and their artwork, team members and support staff is our greatest concern and due to forecasted dangerous weather and potentially hazardous conditions, we have elected to cancel this year’s event.

This annual festival generates funds for local adaptive sports programs supporting thousands of San Diegans with disabilities. Ticket sales, the silent auction and wine and beer sales all benefit The San Diego Festival of the Arts Foundation, Inc., which has raised more than $2.7 million for this cause since 1987.

All existing ticket holders can elect to either receive a refund or may choose to donate their ticket cost to the benefitting foundation; instructions will be sent via email.”

Ticket sales (starting at $13), a silent auction and wine and beer sales all benefit local adaptive sports programs supporting thousands of San Diegans with disabilities. Through this fundraiser, the San Diego Festival of the Arts Foundation, Inc. has raised more than $2.7 million for this cause since 1987.

Beyond the selection of art on display available for purchase, guests will be able to enjoy live music and entertainment both days, a selection of outdoor lawn games and a variety of cuisine options from gourmet wood-fired pizza to BBQ and more.
