The 14th Annual Spring Busker Festival At Seaport Village

Busker Festival at Seaport Village celebrates the fascinating and unique talents of street performers who come from across the world to entertain us here in San Diego.

In its 14th year, this free event – California’s only busker festival – is a family-friendly spectacle and a beloved Seaport Village tradition. View 24 eye-catching and unique performances — like sword swallowing, knife throwing, pogo stick tricks and juggling on unicycles, live music — and help determine the People’s Choice award at Seaport Village.

Also enjoy BUSKER KID ZONE in the Lighthouse District! The ultimate experience for kids or kids at heart to learn how to perform all your favorite circus and street theatre acts. Learn from the professionals at Seaport Village’s annual Busker Fest.

This year introduces Busker University! Think America Ninja Warrior, Cirque De Soleil, The Muppets, and more!

See you there!
