Pundemonium is back, pumpkin! And this month, we're getting spooky. San Diego's ONLY pun competition returns to the Finest City Improv stage on Friday, October 25, at 10 p.m.! Watch, laugh, groan, or JOIN word nerds from across the city in a battle to see who's the punniest of them all—and win a coveted Golden Nugget chicken trophy!

Think of it as a rap battle, but with puns. Sign up in advance at sandiegopundemonium@gmail.com OR on the spot at Pundemonium!

Join us on June 15 to celebrate, City Heights-style! The fourth annual City Heights Street Food Fest will be a family-friendly day of live art, music, cultural performances drinks, and street food as diverse as City Heights. All registration/ticketing proceeds will be used to provide job assistance, food, housing, safer streets, and other critical support to the City Heights community. Street food from many cultures around the world will be available for purchase, and your purchase supports sidewalk vendors as they battle unjust legislation that, until recently, made it virtually impossible to be a legally-recognized business. We can’t wait to celebrate and support these food vendors! **Kids are free!** This is a fundraising event so, unfortunately, refunds will not be provided. Thanks for understanding and supporting our mission!
