Del Mar Summer Solstice

This annual event, presented by the Del Mar Village Association, is being held on June 19 at Del Mar’s Powerhouse Park, providing guests with the unique opportunity to socialize, eat, drink, and listen to live music against a stunning Pacific backdrop. More than 20 Del Mar restaurants will be on hand, as well as some of California’s best wineries and breweries. Guests can sample food, participate in a lively silent auction, and listen to live music performed by local San Diego band Semisi & FulaBula, heralded as one of the city’s most exciting and entertaining bands with South Pacific influences. New this year will be a Del Mar sunset Tiki Torch paddle out and surf show on the waves by the Del Mar lifeguard crew. Proceeds from Summer Solstice will benefit the Challenged Athletes Foundation Operation Rebound Del Mar Surf Clinic, providing opportunities to the physically disabled, including bringing beach-friendly wheelchairs to the community of Del Mar. Other proceeds will benefit the Del Mar Village Association, a nonprofit organization dedicated to enhancing the vitality of the historic Del Mar Village. (www.summer.delmarmainstreet.com)
