Come with us to discover another cultural neighborhood of San Francisco.

The 70th North Beach Festival is to be held in the heart of the historic North Beach neighborhood, on Father's day weekend. It is one of the signature neighborhood festivals in San Francisco and is generally considered one of the oldest street fairs in the United States. Culture wise, North Beach neighborhood is often called "Little Italy" of SF.

As usual, we are going to hold a Discover SF event in this cultural festival. And like always, we want people to get connected in the event beyond simple social.

  • 5:00 — Final regroup; drift to a bar or dessert if energy's still high

TL,DR:
We are also going to visit a few landmarks and famous viewpoints, besides the festival, so people get a good knowledge of the geography and culture around.

  • Montgomery Street viewpoint
  • Colt Tower
  • Saints Peter & Paul Church

The full event is divided into different parts:
1. Group building at cafe
2. Connection on the walk
3. Social in festival
4. Bonding afterwards
Each step puts people in different state as to social wise, joining in the middle you would face a group of people already connected in some way. So for best social experience, we would suggest you get to the cafe at the meeting time.
