A Taste of South Beach & Mission Bay Street Fair

Today is the 2^nd annual South Beach Festival or «A Taste of South Beach and Mission Bay» street fair. Sponsored by Google, SF Giants, Walgreen’s, and a few others (it makes a big difference when events are well funded). The festival is held at a little 2-​block long oval-​shaped park hidden from plain view, between 2^nd and 3^rd streets (parallel to Bryant St), named South Park (not related to the cartoon).
Some SF history trivia: I believe that South Park is both the smallest and oldest park in SF. This area was informally known as SF’s Multimedia Gulch, during the dot-​com era.
I love this new festivals that help bring people together to enjoy a fun day. The place is like a little oasis in the middle of SOMA. On regular weekdays, this park is so peaceful and beautiful, that it feels like you were in a small town.
It was a very nice day for the festival! Booths lined the streets that surround the park, featuring local shops and restaurants — 21^st Amendment, Brickhouse, Frytrap, MoMo’s, Paragon, Tres Agaves, Little Skillet, Zuppa, etc. Good food and drinks! Also a couple of live rock, funk/​hip-​hop music bands are taking turns to play all day.
Schedule: Saturday, 11am to 6pm
Admission: $ 10 donation requested.
Note: just FYI because it’s not mentioned in the event info, you’ll need to purchase tickets at the fair to buy food & drinks.
