Annual Events
Castro Street Fair
Produced by Castro Street Fair, a non-profit organization, the Fair generates funds for charitable causes important to the Castro community. Vendors of all varieties from the Bay area and beyond promote their goods and services, including food and beverages, arts and crafts, and a wide variety of retail items. Nonstop outdoor dancing pavilions are one of the most popular features of the Fair.
The Fair is located in the heart of San Francisco's Castro District at the intersection of Market and Castro Streets and the surrounding area. It is about two miles southwest of The Fairmont San Francisco (about seven minutes by cab). The Castro Street Fair takes place every October.
Fillmore Jazz Festival
The largest free jazz festival on the West coast, Fillmore draws over 100,000 visitors to the tree-lined streets of a treasured neighborhood. Complementing the musical sounds of local players, this festival also celebrates the Bay area's up-and-coming visual artists. From sunup to sundown, visitors can groove to the sounds of live music from multiple stages, browse the offerings of over 300 artists, and enjoy gourmet food and beverages. Asian to Cajun, paintings to pottery, old favorites and new directions, the Fillmore Jazz Festival is not to be missed. The festival takes place every July and is 14 blocks from The Fairmont San Francisco.
