Hey listeners, welcome to your ultimate guide for what's popping in San Diego this week, starting right now on this sunny Wednesday in late April. Spring vibes are in full swing, and we've got a lineup packed with food fests, live tunes, and local gems to keep you buzzing through the weekend. Kick off today with Snapdragon Stadium Tours at the stadium itself, where you can snag tickets for behind-the-scenes peeks into this sports mecca, according to Ticketmaster. Over in El Cajon, Grossmont College hosts the SDEC 2026 Spring Transfer Fair from 10 AM, perfect for students eyeing their next big move, as listed on Eventbrite. Tech folks, don't miss the Business Networking Meeting at 11 AM via the San Diego Tech Scene calendar—great for mingling and sparking ideas. And UC San Diego has a Career Center Spring Workshop Series in La Jolla from 10 AM to noon, plus an evening event at 7 PM at the Epstein Family Amphitheater. Swing into Thursday with the Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training workshop at Marina Village Conference Center starting at 8:30 AM, a meaningful way to build community skills, per Eventbrite. Markets are calling all weekend: Hit the Hillcrest Farmers Market on University Avenue from 9 AM to 2 PM, the Rolando Street Fair from 9 AM to 6 PM, and Gaslamp Artisan Market from 10 AM to 4 PM, straight from the City of San Diego's official events calendar. The real party ramps up with month-long highlights from San Diego Magazine. Dive into Panda Fest for epic Asian street food feasts—think dumplings, bao, and bold flavors that'll have you drooling. Groove to Adams Avenue Unplugged, featuring punk legend Alejandro Escovedo headlining 80 mostly free shows at local spots along the avenue; it's a music lover's dream. Catch Coronado Playhouse's hilarious new musical comedy, The Drowsy Chaperone, for theatrical laughs. Jazz fans, Terence Blanchard and Ravi Coltrane celebrate Miles Davis and John Coltrane's 100th birthdays at Balboa Theatre with saxophone-trumpet magic.
