Live in San Francisco 🌉 July 12, 2024

Some Events Today:


SailGP is an international sailing competition that features high-performance F50 foiling catamarans, where teams compete across a season of multiple grands prix around the world.[1] Its reigning champions are Tom Slingsby's Australia SailGP Team, who won their third consecutive title in the 2022-23 SailGP championship.

Following 13-events of intense, stadium style racing at the most iconic venues in the world, the 10-strong F50 fleet returns to San Francisco to decide the ultimate winner of Season 4 and battle it out for a $2 million prize pot.

Five fleet races will take place across the two-day spectacle, propelling the top three teams into the winner-takes-all Grand Final showdown. The ultimate battle will then begin, with national pride and incredible prize money on the line. Will Tom Slingsby’s Australia secure a fourth consecutive SailGP victory - or will San Francisco host the crowning of a new winner?

The Civic Joy Fund is at it again, kicking off a renewed emphasis on street activations in San Francisco.

Featuring a tantalizing array of culinary delights from esteemed vendors like AA Bakery, the Lucky Creation Vegetarian Restaurant, and Dragon Papa Dessert, alongside numerous other merchants, the night market promises a feast for the senses.

Chinatown has a rich tradition of hosting public gatherings, with events like the Mid-Autumn Festival and previous monthly night markets in Portsmouth Square drawing crowds and fostering a sense of community. Lily Lo, the visionary founder of BeChinatown, expresses her hopes for the event, stating, “I really want people to come out to support our small businesses by eating, shopping, and having fun! “
