Day at the Park event coming to the Chula Vista Bayfront on Saturday June 29th
I don’t know about you, but my summer event calendar is filling up this year. With so many fun events happening, here is another one to add to the list. The Port of San Diego hosts its A Day at the Park: A Port Experiences Series on Saturday, June 29, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
This event, which wraps up a fantastic three-part series hosted by the Port of San Diego at some of our underused parks along the beautiful San Diego Bay waterfront, is a testament to our community’s vibrant spirit and engagement.
The series started with a bang on May 18 at Pepper Park in National City, followed by another fun-filled day at Cesar Chavez Park in Barrio Logan on June 1. It’s Chula Vista’s turn to shine, and I can’t wait to see it. Here are all the details we have so far.
What to Expect at the Day at the Park event
‘A Day at the Park’ is not just an event; it’s a day of pure fun and enjoyment! With performances from local artists, delicious food from local vendors, and plenty of kid-friendly activities, it’s the perfect way to spend a Saturday with family and friends, enjoying the best our community has to offer. If you remember the Chula Vista Earth Day event, then it will be like that, but a little bigger.

For your convenience, a free accessible shuttle service will be available for attendees at the Chula Vista Library-Civic Center Branch, located at 365 F Street, Chula Vista, CA 91910.

A Message from the Port of San Diego Commissioner
“The Port of San Diego is thrilled to invite the community to join us at Bayfront Park in Chula Vista to celebrate the final ‘Day at the Park’ event this year,” said Commissioner Ann Moore, Chula Vista’s appointee on the Board of Port Commissioners. “As we come together against the backdrop of stunning bayfront views and our nearly complete hotel and convention center, we can celebrate with music, art, tasty food, and much more!”
So mark your calendars, bring your friends and family, and prepare for a day of fun, food, and fantastic entertainment at Bayfront Park. Let’s make this summer in Chula Vista one to remember!
