Channel Your Inner Jason Bourne – Tactical Festival Is Coming To San Diego

If you’re a Bourne, Mission Impossible, Jack Reacher and Call Of Duty kind of person, now’s your chance to live the action in real life!

On Saturday, September 9th, Tactical Fest will be taking over Waterfront Park in San Diego with a whole army full of tactical activities, active brands, outdoor gear, technology and more.

Starting at 11 a.m. and continuing until 5 p.m., the day will be complete with special guest appearances, educational panels, contests and prizes (and a beer garden, food truck and swag bags for the more laid back kind of festival goers. We see you 😉 ).

Us? We’re particularly excited about stepping into the world of a special forces operator, navigating through a dark warehouse in the Night Vision Escape activity, watching crazy K-9 demonstrations, and meeting Grunt Style founder Daniel Alarik!

The annual festival of tactics under the sun has a great mission, too. Brought to us by Clever Talks, the event’s proceeds contribute to benefiting the military.

So get pumped, get tactical and – oh, get some discounted tix to the festival, here!
