Details
Meeting Point & Schedule
We’ll meet at 10:00am at the Bea Evenson Fountain in Balboa Park, where we’ll take our group photo. From there:
- Walk to the Botanical Building for a short 10–15 minute photo session.
- Continue to the Globe’s outdoor Copley Plaza, where the Mexican Independence Day festivities will be happening. The celebration kicks off at 10:45am with pre-show music and runs until 1:30pm. You're of course welcome to stay as long as you'd like.
What to Bring
- Your favorite street photography gear
- Comfortable walking shoes, hat, sunglasses, etc.
- Suggested lenses: all lenses should be fine for this event, and depending on what you like to shoot, a fixed 35mm or 50mm as well as medium and long zooms will work
Parking
Balboa Park offers multiple free parking lots, but expect challenges due to the holiday festivities. The closest lots to the Bea Evenson Fountain are:
- Alongside Park Blvd north of the fountain (off Village Pl)
