San Diego’s Annual Busker Festival Returns to Seaport Village For The 15th Year

A beloved Seaport Village tradition, the Busker Festival, in partnership with the Port of San Diego, celebrates the extraordinary talents of street performers from around the world.

In addition to live music from local bands, the pageant headlines twelve spectacular acts from flame-throwing to knife juggling, tight-walking, acrobatics, magic and more!

All day long, festival-goers can expect jaw-dropping performances happening at three stages throughout the Carousel District.

These eccentric entertainers will contend for the ‘People’s Choice Award’— a prestigious honor that’s determined by audience members.

Bubbles and Balloons!

New this year, Bubbles & Balloons will transform the Lighthouse District into an immersive pop-up complete with champagne tastings courtesy of San Pasqual Winery, massive inflatable installations for Instagram-worthy photo ops, balloon artistry and bubble machines!

Come check out this unique, free, family-friendly event!

See you there, San Diego!
