Chestnut Street (between Pierce Street & Divisadero Street)
San Francisco, CA, United States

Join us for the inaugural Marina Block Party!

Celebrate summer in one of San Francisco's most beloved neighborhoods. The Marina Block Party transforms three blocks of Chestnut Street into a vibrant open-street festival — an afternoon of live music, local food and drinks, family-friendly activities, shopping, games, and community, all in support of a great cause. This is a free event open to everyone, with nearly 50 local vendors, restaurants, and craft makers lining Chestnut between Pierce and Divisadero.

For guests looking for an upgraded experience, a limited paid VIP section is available at Eria’s new private event space, offering a premium open bar (2 drink tix included), passed bites from Cultivar, and a prime view of the stage.

There's something for everyone:

• Live music from local artists

• Local craft makers, retailers, and small businesses along three blocks of Chestnut Street

• Local bars and restaurants serving neighborhood favorites

• The Guardsmen Bar featuring local beer & wine

• Family-friendly activities including face painting, games, and a dog area.

• Free merch through a neighborhood-wide punch card challenge

• Event & Experience Raffle with exclusive prizes

Be sure to stop by The Guardsmen Booth to learn more about our mission and how we're making a difference for at-risk Bay Area youth.

All proceeds from The Guardsmen Bar directly support The Guardsmen's charitable programs serving underserved youth throughout the Bay Area.

See you there!
